Station Overview & Interchange

Tun Razak Exchange MRT Station is a flagship interchange station centrally located in Kuala Lumpur’s TRX (Tun Razak Exchange) financial district. It was originally built as part of the MRT Kajang Line and later expanded to incorporate the Putrajaya Line, making it one of the few stations offering a true cross-platform interchange. The station employs a side-stacked (split-level) design so that traffic in both lines can be exchanged with minimal vertical movement123.

The station is one of the deepest in the MRT network, with multiple underground levels including stacked platforms to accommodate the intersecting lines. It integrates with the TRX district development, offering retail, office, and mixed-use connectivity including a pedestrian link to The Exchange TRX mall34.

Connectivity

Significance

The development of TRX MRT Station as a dual-line interchange was crucial in achieving seamless connectivity within the MRT network. It facilitates travel between the northern, southern, and eastern corridors without requiring detours. By linking both lines in the heart of KL, it helps reduce congestion on road corridors and provides a major transit hub for people working in and visiting the TRX financial district. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

Fun/Design Fact

The station uses a “side stacked platform” configuration (also called split platforms) — platforms for one line are stacked vertically above or below those for the other line. This allows a compact footprint underground and efficient cross-platform transfers between the lines. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
