Following a question from the Segambut MP Hannah Yeoh during Parliament on Tuesday (15 March), the Transport Minister said in a Facebook post, the route was expected to be fully completed by 2030 and would start operating in phases, with the first phase to be opened as early as December 2028 subject to a land acquisition process.
