Flashback #Star50: Why drive? Get on the MRT line


A WEEK from now, the MRT Kajang line (formerly known as the Sungai Buloh-Kajang Line) will mark its fourth anniversary following its full opening for passenger service in the Klang Valley.

With construction formally launched on July 8, 2011, the completion of the country’s first MRT (mass rapid transit) line denotes a new era for urban rail in the country, following the successful LRT (light rail transit) extension programme in 2016, where the Kelana Jaya and Ampang LRT lines were joined at Putra Heights in Subang Jaya, Selangor, on June 30, 2016.
