The millions of people in Kuala Lumpur who commute to work every day are fed up with their daily travels. Many solutions to the traffic problems, including the introduction of a light rail system, more highways, and wider roads by the Transport Authority, have been proposed and implemented in recent years to ease the traffic situation. However, with unpredictable daily traffic jams, continuous road construction and congestion, and accidents, these solutions used by policymakers have not made much difference to commuters.
This problem once again became more apparent from voting polls that were taken from The Straits Times and Berita Harian. They showed that the people are voicing their concerns to policymakers. Due to the extensive media coverage, the authorities know the people of Kuala Lumpur are looking for answers. More than three-quarter of the polls indicated the traffic problem as the most urgent issue.
Simultaneously, city planners are unwilling to propose a tax increment for new transport projects because the issue of taxes has always been very sensitive. This implicates a cut on other state projects or new bonds to be issued to fund a new transit system or rail system.
