Catalogue description: [Monthly-frequency ridership data for the 5 main KTMB services, namely Komuter, Komuter Utara, Intercity, ETS and Shuttle Tebrau.](https://data.gov.my/data-catalogue/ridership_ktmb_monthly).

## Coverage

The dataset covers Malaysia (five KTMB services) from 2020-11-01 through 2026-07-01.

## Schema

| Field | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `date` | date | Date in YYYY-MM-DD format, with DD set to 01 as the data is at monthly frequency |
| `service` | string | One of 5 services (Komuter, Komuter Utara, Intercity, ETS, Shuttle Tebrau) in lower snake case |
| `ridership` | integer | Number of trips taken using the service; it should be noted that this may not equal the number of passengers, as a single passenger may take multiple trips within the same month |

## Known quirks

- Monthly dates use the first day of the month.
- Values count trips, not unique passengers.
- The five services have different starting dates because KITS was rolled out in phases.

## Breaking changes

None observed.
