Kota Kinabalu: The feasibility study on the proposed extension of the railway line from Sembulan to Sepanggar is expected to commence between this year and 2025.
Deputy Chief Minister III Datuk lr Shahelmy Yahya said the plan, which focuses on enhancing logistics and connectivity, will help improve the way people commute, transport goods and ease traffic congestion.
