MRT Putrajaya Line (also known as MRT2) is the second line of the Klang Valley Mass Rapid Transit network. It stretches from Kwasa Damansara MRT Station in the northwest of the Klang Valley to Putrajaya Sentral MRT Station in the federal administrative capital. The line enhances regional connectivity by linking key residential, business, and governmental areas. 1
The MRT Putrajaya Line was proposed as part of Malaysia’s long-term plan to expand the Klang Valley’s rail network following the success of the Kajang Line. Construction began in 2016 under MRT Corp’s supervision, with MMC Gamuda KVMRT as the turnkey contractor. The project was designed to complement the first MRT line by providing north–south connectivity through dense urban corridors and extending service to government precincts in Putrajaya. 2
The line begins at Kwasa Damansara MRT Station, which also serves as an interchange with the Kajang Line, and continues through Sungai Buloh, Kepong, Sentul, and Titiwangsa before passing underground through the city centre — connecting Tun Razak Exchange (TRX), Persiaran KLCC and Chan Sow Lin — then proceeding southwards through Serdang and Cyberjaya before terminating at Putrajaya Sentral MRT Station. 2
The MRT Putrajaya Line provides numerous interchange options across the Klang Valley’s rail network:
The underground section of the line spans approximately 13.5 km and includes nine stations such as Sentul Barat, Hospital Kuala Lumpur, Titiwangsa, TRX, and Persiaran KLCC. This segment was built using advanced tunnel boring technology to navigate the densely developed city centre without disrupting existing structures. 2
The Putrajaya Line serves a diverse mix of neighbourhoods, including Kepong, Sentul, Damansara Heights, Ampang fringes, and Putrajaya. The line also improves access to educational and administrative hubs such as Universiti Malaya, Serdang, Cyberjaya, and Putrajaya government precincts. 2
The line operates 49 sets of 4-car driverless trains supplied by HAP Consortium (Siemens, Siemens Mobility and SMH Rail). Each train can carry approximately 1,200 passengers and operates on an automated signaling system similar to the Kajang Line. 3
Travel time between Kwasa Damansara MRT Station and Putrajaya Sentral MRT Station is about 84 minutes end-to-end. During peak hours, trains run at 4-minute intervals, making it one of the most efficient long-distance urban rail options in Greater Kuala Lumpur. 2
The completion of the MRT Putrajaya Line has significantly enhanced cross-city mobility by connecting previously underserved suburbs and reducing reliance on private cars. Together with the MRT Kajang Line, it forms the backbone of the Klang Valley’s integrated rapid transit system operated by Rapid KL. 1
Future proposals include the MRT Circle Line (MRT3), which will further connect both the Kajang and Putrajaya Lines through additional interchange stations, creating a loop around central Kuala Lumpur. 4
