The LRT Shah Alam Line or LRT 3, previously known as the LRT Bandar Utama–Klang Line, LRT Bandar Utama-Johan Setia Line or simply LRT Johan Setia Line,[5] is a medium-capacity light rapid transit (LRT) line which will be serving the Shah Alam and Klang regions on the western side of the Klang Valley, Malaysia. It will be the third LRT line, and the fourth fully automated and driverless rail system in the Klang Valley region. The line will be operated as part of the RapidKL system by Rapid Rail, a subsidiary of Prasarana Malaysia.[6][7] It was announced by Prasarana Malaysia on 24 April 2013.[8][9]

Once completed, the line will form part of the Klang Valley Integrated Transit System. It is numbered 11 and coloured sky blue on official transit maps.

The line is one out of four rapid transit lines in the Klang Valley that does not serve KL Sentral, the other three being the Ampang Line, Sri Petaling Line and the Putrajaya Line, as well as the first rapid transit line in the Klang Valley that is entirely outside the borders of the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur.

Previously, a total of 26 stations were planned, with a proposed two-kilometre distance between each station. One station was to be an underground station, with the other 25 being elevated.

The LRT3 will feature a few interchange stations. The planned interchanges are  KG09  Bandar Utama on the MRT Kajang Line and  KJ27  CGC-Glenmarie on the LRT Kelana Jaya Line.

The alignment is based on the Final Railway Scheme approved by the Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD).

Due to the change of government in the 2018 Malaysian general election, the new Pakatan Harapan government decided to cut costs around the project and shelved six stations from the initial plan. The Lien Hoe, Temasya, SIRIM, Bukit Raja and Bandar Botanik stations were converted into provisional stations while the underground station of Persiaran Hishamuddin was cancelled. The reasons cited for the changes made were due to the high cost of the project, unnecessary tunneling for the underground portion of the line and low ridership in the area. The provisional stations however will be built once the demand in the area picks up.[10][11]

Other cost-cutting exercises including the swapping of six-car trains for three-car trains, cutting down the total trains from 42 to 22, reducing the size of the stations and ditching costly acceleration techniques. The completion date also was extended from 2020 to 2024.[10][11]

In July 2023, Transport Minister Anthony Loke mentioned that the overall line would be expected to be operational by 1 March 2025 adding more delays to the opening of the Shah Alam Line.[12] This would be the third delay to the project's completion date.

During the Budget 2024 presentation held on 13 October 2023, Finance Minister Dato' Seri Anwar Ibrahim announced the reintegration of the five stations that were previously under provisional status (Tropicana, Temasya, Raja Muda, Bukit Raja Selatan, Bandar Botanik) to be built alongside the rest of the Shah Alam Line with the exception of the sole underground station, Persiaran Hishamuddin, which remains cancelled.[13]

The line currently has 25 permanent stations under construction.[14]

Other Information

  • Initially, the Klang LRT station (now Pasar Jawa) was planned as an interchange station with the Klang KTM station. However, due to efforts to reduce cost and objections from Little India Klang business residents, the station will be built beside Emporium Makan and Shaw Centrepoint Mall which is 700 meters away from the KTM Komuter station, resulting in a same-name but different stations situation, similar to Salak Selatan LRT/KTM and Sentul LRT/KTM stations. [42][43]
  • The line will be connected with 3 retail malls and shopping centres, namely the Shaw Center Point (The Store), Lotus's Klang (formerly TESCO Bukit Tinggi) and AEON Bukit Tinggi in Klang.[44]
  • The trains will have a maximum operating speed of 80 km/h (17% faster than the current Kelana Jaya Line) with the capacity of carrying 36,720 passengers per hour per direction.[45]
