布城脉搏

**Pengangkutan Awam Putrajaya Travel & Tours Sdn Bhd** dba **Nadi Putra** is the city bus operator in Putrajaya, the administrative capital of Malaysia, mainly serving Putrajaya city and nearby resident areas. Originally established as an agency of Putrajaya Corporation under the Ministry of Federal Territories, it was privatised in 2018.

Nadi Putra is now operated by RapidKL, the largest city bus operator in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur.

## History

Established on 20 May 1999 with 14 routes covering almost all of the areas inside Putrajaya, _Nadi Putra_ is the trade name of Putrajaya intra-city bus services and has been in operation since July 1999. The bus service was privatised and handed over to _GETS Global Berhad_ in 2018.

Cashless payment was implemented in January 2018, using _Kad Putra_; the cards were discontinued two years later in favour of QR code payment.

All Nadi Putra bus services will be free of charge for Malaysian citizens effective 1 November 2020. some new routes were also being planned at that time, under the Perikatan Nasional government. However, use of the Nadi Putra app is still mandatory for contact tracing and citizenship verification.

From 1st January 2023, Perbadanan Putrajaya revamped the Nadi Putra bus routes in Putrajaya,

Nadiputra 是一家提供巴士服務的公司。然而，自 2023 年 1 月 1 日起，Nadiputra 在布城地區的 7 條巴士路線的運營權將由快捷通巴士私人有限公司接管運營，但仍將保留使用「Bas Nadiputra」的名稱。

據布城管理局官方發布的消息顯示，布城地區的短程巴士公司將由快捷通巴士公司接管，而巴士川行的路線也將有所調整。自 2023 年開始，布城地區的短程巴士路線將整改為 7 條，分別是 P101、P102、P103、P104、P105、P106 和 P108。這些巴士路線的運營時間為每周一至周五的早上 6 點 30 分至晚上 8 點，周六、周日和公共假日的巴士川行時間則為早上 7 點至晚上 8 點。在繁忙的尖峰時段（早上 6 點 30 分至 9 點和下午 4 點 30 分至 6 點），巴士的班次間隔為 15 分鐘或 30 分鐘一趟；在非繁忙時段，班次間隔為 30 分鐘或 40 分鐘一趟；而在周末和公共假日，班次間隔為 45 分鐘一趟。

在這些巴士路線中，除了 P101 是免費的之外，其他 6 個路線的單程車資為 1 令吉。搭客們只能使用一觸即通卡繳付車資，不收現金。老年人、殘疾人和學生則可以申請折扣優惠。

## 使用車輛

最初，Nadi Putra 的車隊由數輛 Optare MetroRider、MAN SL 252 和 Hino RK1J 巴士組成，但在 2006 年，這些車輛被 Badanbas 改裝的韓國大宇汽車 BV120MA NGV 巴士取代。隨著更多車輛的加入和引進更短的 Daewoo BS106 巴士來處理更銳利的路線，車隊在 2009 年擴大至 176 輛巴士。這個車隊的大部分車輛在 2019 年退役，因為維修成本過高，但 8 輛 BV120MA 巴士已經復出以提高班次。

在 2015 年，馬來西亞布城管理局與日本新能源和產業技術發展機構（NEDO）合作，旨在在 2025 年之前實現綠色公共運輸，這導致推出了 5 輛電動超級電容巴士原型，由斯堪尼亞、Deftech 和東芝聯合製造。這些巴士被暱稱為 NEDO-EV 巴士，它們可以在單次 10 分鐘充電後行駛 30 公里。這個巴士於 2018 年投入服務，但由於內部問題於 2020 年被暫停，重新投入服務的時間尚待確定。

隨著 Rapid Bus（快捷通巴士）從 2023 年 1 月開始成為 Nadi Putra 的新巴士運營商，整頓後的巴士路線將使用快捷通巴士擁有的亞歷山大丹尼士 Enviro200 巴士車隊。Foton 巴士被歸還給 Konsortium Bas Ekspres Semenanjung（KBES），而韓國大宇 NGV 巴士已經退役並被廢棄。

Originally, Nadi Putra's fleet consisted of several numbers of Optare Metrorider, MAN SL 252 and Hino RK1J buses, however, in 2006, it was replaced with Badanbas-bodied South Korean Daewoo BV120MA NGV buses. The fleet then expanded to 176 buses in 2009 with the additional fleet and the introduction of the shorter Daewoo BS106 buses for routes with sharper corners. Majority of this fleet has been retired in 2019 due to high maintenance cost, however 8 BV120MA's has revived to improve frequencies.

In 2015, a collaboration between Perbadanan Putrajaya and Japan's New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) was made to aim for green public transportation by 2025, which led to the introduction of 5 prototype electric supercapacitor buses, jointly built by Scania, Deftech and Toshiba. Nicknamed NEDO-EV buses, these buses can run up to 30 kilometres on a single 10-minute charge. This bus entered service in 2018, but it has been suspended in 2020 due to internal problems, and expereadinesstion to re-enter service is yetbe to determined.

With Rapid Bus becoming the new bus operator in Nadi Putra from January 2023, the revamped bus routes will use the Alexander Dennis Enviro200 bus fleet owned by Rapid Bus. The Foton buses were returned to Konsortium Bas Ekspres Semenanjung (KBES), while the Daewoo NGV buses were retired and abandoned.

## Criticism

Nadi Putra's service quality has reportedly declined since privatisation in 2018. Most of the buses are poorly maintained frequencies are breaking down, causing outrage among the residents and workers in Putrajaya, Cyberjaya and Bandar Saujana Putra.

Strikes broke out among Nadi Putra bus drivers in 2007 and 2018 due to shortage of buses available inforervice.

The implementation of cashless payment via _Kad Putra_ instead of the more widely accepted Touch 'n Go in January 2018 led to outcry from commuters coming from outside Putrajaya, as the cards and reloading services were only available at the Putrajaya/Cyberjaya ERL station, the station being Nadi Putra's hub. The cards were abolished in January 2020, and were replaced by QR code mobile applications.

The result of poorly maintained NGV buses was that the bus was abandoned and replaced by Foton BJ6108U7LHD-R coach buses from Konsortium Bas Ekspres Semenanjung (KBES), which was unpractical for city-buses, thus led to a failure of having sustainable city buses. This also led to some of the routes being terminated, or transferred to another companies.
