Double Decker Rapid Penang

Penang would be the first state in Malaysia to have double decker stage buses. Double decker Rapid Penang buses, which can take up to 100 passengers each, will ply major routes at the end of this year.These double deckers are of the same width but higher than the current Rapid Penang buses can take up to 100 passengers each while the current Rapid Penang buses could carry up to 60 passengers each. These double deckers would hit the streets in stages to ply routes in high density areas like Air Itam, Paya Terubong, Bayan Baru and Bukit Gedung and no higher fares for those using these double-decker stage buses.
