XLP member, Megalift, transports U-Trough Girders for Malaysia’s LRT

Oct 26, 2020

The Phase 3 of the Light Rapid Transit (LRT) project in Malaysia has begun construction in 2019. It is a 37-km railway line connecting 25 elevated stations within Klang Valley, the central region of Peninsular Malaysia.

Megalift has been one of the leading logistics partners since the first phase of the project. And it’s amazing to see how far the project has evolved. In the Phase 3 of the railway line, their scope at the construction stage is to transport about 400 units of U-Trough Girders from its fabrication yard to all of the respective stations. The total weight of the girders are approximately 165 tons each.

In accordance to the work schedule, they are moving on a daily basis due to the high volume of girders to be delivered. There were delays due to the pandemic situation, but they have since gone back to regular deliveries. However, strict SOPs such as wearing of masks, temperature taking, and proper sanitisation have been set in place.
