The previously-suspended MRT3 project, which was supposed to complete the Klang Valley’s rail network by being the Circle Line loop, has been given the green light to proceed by the government, as announced by transport minister Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong earlier this month.
MRT Corp is being given three months to update the previously-conducted studies on the MRT3 project, which will be presented to the cabinet. The media was given a “refresher course” on the topic yesterday and here are some info from various reports from the event.
The proposal is looking at 30 stations, including some 10 interchanges. Some of the proposed MRT stations that will be confirmed in the coming months are Bukit Kiara, INTAN (National Institute of Public Administration), Sri Hartamas, Mont Kiara, Jalan Duta, Matrade, Jalan Kuching, Sentul West, Sentul East, Ayer Panas, Semarak, Setiawangsa, Ampang Point, Desa Pandan, Pandan Indah, Taman Perdana, Taman Mid
Located 5km north of the heart of Kuala Lumpur, Sentul is a juxtaposition of pre-war buildings with their old-world charm and futuristic skyscrapers that punctuate the skyline.
Steeped in history, the former railway hub went through a period of decline before YTL Land & Development took over the 294-acre Sentul Raya development from Taiping Consolidated Bhd and unveiled the Sentul Masterplan comprising Sentul East and Sentul West in 2002, which turned the place around.
Fast forward to today, Sentul is especially well-known for the Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre (klpac), which opened in 2005, and the Sentul Depot event space, which was officially opened by YTL Land in 2018. The area is also fast becoming a desired address to live in with iconic condominiums such as The Capers and The Fennel in Sentul East, and the upmarket The Maple condominium, which is situated in a park.
