LRT3 New Line - Now Known As Shah Alam Line (Line 11) From Bandar Utama to Johan Setia

Rail Development in Malaysia

LRT 3 Background

Under the Urban Rail Development Plan (URDP), LRT3 is aimed at catering for local movements in the areas with rail services operating between Klang and Kelana Jaya. This will allow local demands to transfer from Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) to LRT3, allowing KTMB to provide a longer distance suburban service. The aim is to complement the KTMB route along a parallel alignment, rather than serve the same catchment areas. Therefore the LRT3 would provide a linkage to Shah Alam from both Klang and Kelana Jaya.

The implementation of the LRT3 also complements other elements of the Greater Kuala Lumpur/Klang Valley Master Plan to develop an integrated public transport system.


The LRT3 alignment and stations were determined after an extensive feasibility study by Land Public Transport Agency (APAD) and a three-month public display in 2015 to ensure maximum impact from a social and economic perspective. The three-month public display was held from May to August 2015 and received more than 90% support from close to 7,300 people members of the public.- LRT3 web
