East Coast Rail Link (ECRL)

 

The East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) (Malay: Laluan Rel Pantai Timur) is a planned standard gauge double-track railway link infrastructure project connecting Port Klang on the Straits of Malacca to Kota Bharu in northeast Peninsular Malaysia, connecting the East Coast Economic Regionstates of Pahang, Terengganu and Kelantan to one another and to Peninsular Malaysia’s west coast and Central Region e.g. Negeri Sembilan.

The railway link infrastructure project would have carried both passengers and freight from the West Coast of Peninsular Malaysia to its East Coast and vice versa.

Construction began in August 2017. On 3 July 2018, Malaysia Rail Link Sdn Bhd (MRL) instructed China Communications Construction Company(CCCC) to suspend all works under the engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning contract (EPCC) of the ECRL project.The suspension was lifted after signing of a supplementary agreement between MRL and CCCC in April 2019 on the revised construction cost and southern alignment of the rail link.
