Asia Mobiliti, Malaysia’s leading Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) company, and Triterra, the developer of The Met Corporate Towers, have announced a strategic partnership to introduce innovative and sustainable mobility solutions to KL Metropolis, the International Trade & Exhibition District of Kuala Lumpur. This collaboration highlights the growing synergy between mobility and real estate in creating connected, sustainable, and digital urban communities, the company stated in an announcement.
The partnership will co-fund and implement Asia Mobiliti’s Trek Rides Demand-Responsive Transit (DRT) service within the KL Metropolis zone to address first- and last-mile connectivity gaps in the rapidly expanding mixed-development district.
Designed to link the district to key public transit stations and hubs, including MRT Sentul Barat, KTM Segambut, and Duta Bus Terminal, Trek Rides will offer a sustainable public transport option for residents, workers, and visitors. Notable destinations within the area include The MET Corporate Towers, the Malaysia International Trade & Exhibition Centre (MITEC), government offices such as Matrade, MITI, LHDN, and JPN, the KL High Court complex, as well as shopping malls like Publika, Solaris Mont Kiara, and 1 Mont Kiara. Educational institutions such as Mont Kiara International School, the French School of Kuala Lumpur, and nearby public schools will also benefit, alongside residential areas in Mont Kiara, Dutamas, Jalan Kasipillay, and Taman Segambut SPPK.
Ramachandran Muniandy (pic), CEO and co-founder of Asia Mobiliti, stated, “This partnership with Triterra reflects our shared vision for digital, inclusive, and sustainable cities, enabled by the integration of innovative mobility technology with iconic real estate. The future of our cities will be shaped by this new model of a mobility ecosystem that prioritises connectivity, integration, and sustainability.”
Trek Rides, already operational across several Klang Valley zones, is set to launch in KL Metropolis in the first quarter of 2025. The service will provide residents and businesses with a convenient, eco-friendly alternative to private cars, helping to reduce traffic congestion. Through the Trek app, users can access a comprehensive multimodal journey planner for the Klang Valley and book DRT rides in all Trek Rides operational zones.
Triterra CEO Christopher Lim underscored the importance of partnerships in driving urban development, stating, “This collaboration with Asia Mobiliti aligns with our mission to integrate mobility with urban development, creating communities that are better connected, more sustainable, and inclusive. Together, we are paving the way for smarter, greener cities that prioritise people and the environment.”
The partnership between Asia Mobiliti and Triterra demonstrates the potential for property developers to integrate intelligent transportation solutions into their projects, benefiting the wider community. This initiative serves as a blueprint for modern urban planning, showcasing the rise of digital cities powered by mobility-as-a-service.
