Klang Valley MRT (5 August, 2017)
Klang Valley MRT is a mass rapid transit system being planned for
Kuala Lumpur and the Klang Valley. The first MRT line will run from
Sungai Buloh to Kajang, and will interchange with the existing LRT and KTM Komuter lines. The line will be 60 km in length, of which about 10 km will be underground. It will tentatively planned to have 35 stations.
A second line will run from
Sungai Buloh through Kepong and Kuala Lumpur to Serdang, while a third line will be a circle line around the city. There will be a station every half kilometer to a kilometer, depending on population and traffic density.
The Klang Valley MRT will be owned by the Government of Malaysia through Syarikat Prasarana Negara, the national infrastructure company under the Ministry of Finance. The MRT will mostly be run by RapidKL, the same company under Syarikat Prasarana Negara which runs the LRT and
Rapid Penang buses.
Riding the Klang Valley MRT
The Klang Valley MRT accepts the Touch 'n Go stored value card, which can also be used for riding the
Klang Valley LRT and
KL Monorail. I use the Touch 'n Go which is on my Tesco Clubcard to take rides.
