The successful completion of the 9.5km underground alignment of the Sungai Buloh-Kajang (SBK) MRT Line is a huge feather in the cap for the tunnelling contractor, MMC-Gamuda KVMRT (T) Sdn Bhd (MGKT).

This pair of tunnels hosting seven underground stations has definitely made a great difference to more than 100,000 commuters each day as they traverse this previously underserved corridor.
