Original plan was for new MRT2 to start from Sg Buloh and not Selayang


PETALING JAYA: The aligment of the second Mass Rapid Transit line 2 (MRT2) has caused confusion among the officials and industry executives in the construction and transportation sector.

In the Budget 2015 unveiled last Friday, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak announced that the MRT2 project, to cost an estimated RM23bil, would be from Selayang to Putrajaya and work would start next year.
