June 21, 2026
After almost ten years of construction, the LRT3 Shah Alam Line is finally about to carry passengers. It runs from Bandar Utama in Petaling Jaya all the way to Johan Setia in Klang, cutting straight through Shah Alam in between. For the western side of the Klang Valley, this is the biggest change to public transport in a generation.
If you live, work, or are thinking of buying along this corridor, here is everything you need to know. The full station list, the fares, when it opens, how it plugs into the rest of the rail network, and the new launches you can already find near the line on MyRumahBaru.
The LRT3 is the newest line on the Klang Valley rail map. A few quick facts before we get into the stations:
Official name: LRT3, also called the Shah Alam Line (older name: Bandar Utama–Johan Setia Line)
Line colour and number: Line 11, sky blue
Owner and operator: Owned by Prasarana, run by Rapid Rail under the Rapid KL network
Length: 37.8 km, mostly elevated
Stations: Around 20 open at launch, rising to 25 once the five in-fill stations are ready
Route: Petaling Jaya to Shah Alam to Klang
Trains: Fully driverless, no driver on board, made by CRRC Zhuzhou
Depot: Johan Setia, at the Klang end of the line
The headline win is the Klang and Shah Alam stretch. Petaling Jaya already has plenty of rail. Klang and large parts of Shah Alam never did. For those towns, LRT3 is the first proper urban rail they have ever had.
The line is a single track from one end to the other, no branches. Here is the full run from the Bandar Utama end down to Johan Setia in Klang, with what each station serves.
Petaling Jaya stretch
Bandar Utama is the eastern end of the line and the most important station for connections. This is where LRT3 meets the MRT Kajang Line, so you can switch straight onto the MRT and reach TRX, Cochrane, or Kajang without coming above ground. 1 Utama, one of the largest malls in the country, sits right here.
Kayu Ara serves Damansara Utama and the Kayu Ara neighbourhoods.
BU11 covers the Bandar Utama and Tropicana fringe.
Damansara Idaman serves the Dataran Prima and Damansara Idaman pocket.
Subang serves SS7, Kelana Indah, and the Ara Damansara side.
Glenmarie and the Shah Alam approach
Glenmarie is the second big interchange. Here LRT3 connects to the Kelana Jaya LRT Line, which means a one-change ride into KLCC, KL Sentral, and the city core. Glenmarie is the commercial and light-industrial belt between PJ and Shah Alam.
Kerjaya sits next to the HICOM-Glenmarie industrial park.
Stadium Shah Alam serves Seksyen 13 and 14, near Stadium Shah Alam, Stadium Malawati, AEON Mall Shah Alam, and MSU.
Dato' Menteri (Shah Alam Sentral) lands you in the heart of the Shah Alam city centre, near the Blue Mosque, Wisma MBSA, the SACC Mall, and the state government offices.
UiTM Shah Alam serves the main UiTM campus, which alone moves tens of thousands of students and staff.
Seksyen 7 is the station for i-City, the theme park and smart-city development, plus Hospital Shah Alam.
Klang stretch
Bandar Baru Klang serves the Bukit Raja side, near AEON Bukit Raja and KPJ Klang Specialist Hospital.
Pasar Klang drops you at the Klang town wet market and Klang Parade.
Jalan Meru serves the Kawasan 17 area.
Jambatan Kota is the heart of old Klang town, near Little India, the royal mosque, and the heritage quarter. It is also about a 700 m walk from the KTM Komuter Klang station, so you can link to the Port Klang KTM line on foot.
Hospital Tengku Ampuan Rahimah (HTAR) serves the main public hospital in Klang and the Taman Selatan area.
Seri Andalas, Klang Jaya, and Bandar Bukit Tinggi run through the southern Klang suburbs, with Bandar Bukit Tinggi serving AEON Bukit Tinggi and GM Klang.
Johan Setia is the western end of the line and the location of the depot.
The five stations that come later. When LRT3 first opens, five stations along the route will not be ready yet. These are Tropicana, Temasya, Raja Muda, Bukit Raja Selatan, and Bandar Botanik. They were cut from the plan back in 2018 to save cost, then brought back in Budget 2024, so they are being built on a later schedule and are expected to open around 2028. Trains will pass through these spots without stopping until then. One station, Persiaran Hishamuddin, was meant to be underground but was cancelled for good. That is why you may see the line described as having 25 stations rather than 26.
The short version: it has been a long wait.
Construction started around 2016. The original plan was a RM31.6 billion line with 42 six-car trains, due in 2020. In 2018 the project was reviewed and the cost was cut by nearly half to RM16.6 billion. Trains were reduced to 22 three-car sets, the tunnel was dropped, and five stations were shelved. The opening date kept slipping, from 2020 to 2024, then to 2025.
As of mid-2026, the line is in its final trial runs and the Transport Minister has said passenger service will begin by the end of June 2026. The five in-fill stations come later, around 2028.
Opening dates on big rail projects do move, so check the official Rapid KL channels for the exact first day of service and any free-ride promo before you plan a trip.
Driverless trains. LRT3 runs fully automated, with no driver on board, the same setup as the Kelana Jaya Line and the MRT. The trains are three-car CRRC Zhuzhou sets carrying about 624 people each.
Fares. LRT3 uses the same distance-based fares as the rest of Rapid KL. The most you will pay end to end is around RM4.90 in cash, or RM4.30 if you pay cashless with Touch 'n Go or a contactless card. Cashless is cheaper, so tap your card.
Frequency. Trains are planned to come about every 6 minutes at peak. The system can run tighter than that as ridership grows.
One ticket, one network. Because LRT3 sits inside Rapid KL, your journey links up with the LRT, MRT, and Monorail on the same fare system. No need to buy a separate ticket when you change lines.
This is the part that makes the line useful even if you do not live right next to it.
At Bandar Utama, LRT3 meets the MRT Kajang Line. That single interchange links the western Klang Valley to TRX, the city centre, and all the way out to Kajang.
At Glenmarie, LRT3 meets the Kelana Jaya LRT Line, which runs through KL Sentral, KLCC, and Ampang.
Near Jambatan Kota in Klang, a short walk connects you to the KTM Komuter line towards Port Klang and the city.
So a Klang resident who never had rail before can now reach KL Sentral or KLCC with one change. That is the real story of this line.
Be honest about this, because the two ends of the line are very different markets.
The Petaling Jaya end is already well served by rail and roads. Adding LRT3 here is a nice-to-have, not a game changer, and some older high-rise prices in this stretch have actually softened recently. Buyers here already had options.
The Shah Alam and Klang end is the real opportunity. These areas have been car-dependent for decades. A station within walking distance changes the daily maths for renters and owner-occupiers, and that tends to support both rental demand and resale value over time. Landed homes in parts of Bukit Tinggi and Taman Selatan have already moved up in recent years as the line got closer to opening.
A fair word of caution. Transit access on its own does not guarantee a price jump. The developments that do best are the ones that pair a station with real walkability, decent layouts, and amenities you would use anyway. A station 2 km away that you still need to drive to does much less for you than one you can walk to in five minutes. Treat "near LRT3" as one factor, not the whole case.
Here are the new launches currently on MyRumahBaru that sit along the LRT3 corridor, grouped by where they are on the line. Most of them cluster around the Petaling Jaya to Shah Alam stretch, which is where the bulk of new high-rise building is happening right now.
Around the Petaling Jaya stations
[Grand Damansara] by Grand Global. A condominium in Petaling Jaya near the Kayu Ara end of the line, with 1 to 3 bedroom layouts. Prices start from RM253,800, which is on the affordable side for this address. Targeted for completion in Q3 2027.
[Pinnacle Ara Damansara] by the PINNACLE ARMANI Group. Sitting close to the Ara Damansara stretch of LRT3, this one has been marketed around its transit access, with 1 to 3 bedroom units from RM433,800. Completion is targeted for Q4 2027.
Around Glenmarie and Temasya
This is the busiest cluster on the line for new launches.
[Temasya Prisma Serviced Residence] by S P Setia. A serviced residence near the Glenmarie and Temasya stations, with 1 and 3 bedroom layouts from RM270,000. This is one of the earlier ones to be ready, with completion targeted for Q4 2026.
[Hype Residences] by Sime Darby Property. Near Glenmarie, with 2 and 3 bedroom units from RM580,000 and completion targeted for Q1 2028.
[Pinnacle Subang] by Pinnacle Homes. Also in the Glenmarie catchment, with 2 bedroom layouts. Pricing has not been released yet, so register your interest to get the latest. Completion is targeted for Q3 2027.
[Amika] by Avaland. On the Shah Alam side near the Temasya and Glenmarie stretch, with 2 and 3 bedroom units from RM697,800 and completion targeted for Q3 2027.
Around Shah Alam
[Astrum Shah Alam] by Setia Awan. A condominium in Shah Alam near the Raja Muda and Seksyen 2 area, with 2 to 4 bedroom layouts from RM270,000. This is one of the larger-unit options on the line, good for families. Completion is targeted for Q4 2028.
What about i-City, Klang town, and the Klang suburbs? These stretches do not have new high-rise launches listed with us yet, even though they are some of the most talked-about TOD spots on the line. That can change fast once the line opens. The quickest way to keep track is to tell our assistant Sarah what you are after and let her flag matches near a specific station as they come up.
If you are weighing a few of these against each other, you can see every one of them on the [MyRumahBaru map], compare them side by side, and check the flood risk, crime, and transaction data we show for each address before you commit.
The LRT3 Shah Alam Line runs 37.8 km from Bandar Utama in PJ to Johan Setia in Klang, with passenger service starting around the end of June 2026.
Around 20 stations open first, rising to 25 once the five in-fill stations (Tropicana, Temasya, Raja Muda, Bukit Raja Selatan, and Bandar Botanik) open around 2028.
Fares top out at about RM4.90 cash or RM4.30 cashless, on the same Rapid KL network as the LRT, MRT, and Monorail.
It interchanges with the MRT Kajang Line at Bandar Utama and the Kelana Jaya LRT Line at Glenmarie, with a walking link to KTM at Klang.
The biggest property upside is the Shah Alam and Klang end, which never had rail before. Treat "near a station" as one factor, not a guarantee.
Most new launches on the line right now sit between PJ and Shah Alam, including Grand Damansara, Pinnacle Ara Damansara, Temasya Prisma, Hype Residences, Pinnacle Subang, Amika, and Astrum Shah Alam.

You can see all of them on the map.
Q: Is buying near the LRT3 a good investment? The strongest case is the Shah Alam and Klang end, which never had rail before, so a station within walking distance is a real upgrade. That said, transit access alone does not guarantee a price jump. The homes that do best pair a nearby station with real walkability and amenities. Treat it as one factor in your decision, not the whole story.
