Quick Answer

The LRT3 Shah Alam Line (Line 11, Sky Blue) is a fully automated, driverless medium-capacity rapid transit line stretching 37.8km across the western Klang Valley. Connecting major population hubs from Bandar Utama in Petaling Jaya to Johan Setia in Klang, the line features 20 active operational stations. Commuters can transfer seamlessly to the MRT Kajang Line and LRT Kelana Jaya Line, with standard distance-based fares topping out at RM4.30 for cashless users and RM4.90 for cash payments.

Navigating between Petaling Jaya, Shah Alam, and Klang has historically meant facing unpredictable bumper-to-bumper congestion along the Federal Highway and NKVE. Operated by Rapid Rail under the Rapid KL network, the LRT3 Shah Alam Line offers a reliable, air-conditioned alternative capable of moving thousands of commuters daily.

Whether you are a daily office worker planning a new morning routine or a weekend traveler exploring Selangor, here is the complete, permanent reference guide to the LRT3 network.

What Is the Complete Route Map for the LRT3?

The system travels through heavily populated suburban residential zones, educational landmarks, and industrial commercial sectors. Out of the total plan, 20 stations are currently fully open and operational as of today. 

In the near future, 5 additional stations (Tropicana, Temasya, Raja Muda, Bukit Raja, Bandar Botanik) are scheduled to be added into the current line around 2028. Note that station SA11, Persiaran Hishamuddin has been cancelled and was converted into a tunnel ventilation control station.

How Do You Interchange from the LRT3 to the MRT and LRT Lines?

The true value of the LRT3 line is how it seamlessly integrates into the wider Klang Valley rail network. You do not need to exit the station ticketing gates to switch lines at these major crossing points:

  • Bandar Utama [SA01]: This terminal hub provides a direct passenger bridge connection to the MRT Kajang Line. This allows commuters originating from Klang or Shah Alam to ride into the heart of Kuala Lumpur’s financial district, including Tun Razak Exchange (TRX) and Bukit Bintang, using a single unified ticket.

  • Glenmarie 2 [SA07]: This strategic interchange bridges over to the LRT Kelana Jaya Line. It serves as a vital artery for travelers needing to connect directly to Subang Jaya, USJ, KL Sentral, and KLCC.

  • Pasar Jawa [SA20]: Positioned near Jambatan Kota in Klang, this station features a 700-meter sheltered pedestrian walking link to the KTM Komuter Tanjung Malim-Port Klang Line.

What is the Official Fare Structure and Card Pricing for the LRT3?

The line utilizes the standard distance-based ticketing matrix managed across the Prasarana transit network. The further you travel, the fare scales up incrementally, keeping commuting costs highly predictable compared to driving toll fees and petrol.

  • Cashless (Touch 'n Go): An end-to-end journey running from Bandar Utama all the way to Johan Setia tops out at a maximum cap of RM4.30.

  • Cash Token : If you purchase single-journey tokens from the Ticket Vending Machines, the maximum end-to-end cash fare is RM4.90.

  • My50 Unlimited Travel Pass: Malaysian citizens with an active My50 pass can ride the entire line, along with all integrated LRT, MRT, Monorail, and BRT systems, completely free of extra charge within their 30-day active pass window.

  • Concession Cards: Discounted concession fares are available at a 50% reduction for Malaysian students (Rapid Pelajar), senior citizens aged 60 and above (Rapid Emas), and persons with disabilities (Rapid Mesra).

What Are the Train Frequencies and Daily Operating Hours?

To support the heavy demands of office workers, the weekly frequency schedule operates under structured peak-hour clusters:

  • Weekdays (Monday to Friday): Trains run at a tight 8-minute frequency during morning rush hour (7:00 AM to 9:30 AM) and evening rush hour (5:00 PM to 7:30 PM). Outside of these rush windows, arrival times ease to a 10 to 15-minute frequency.

  • Weekends & Public Holidays: Trains arrive at a steady 10-minute interval throughout the entire day.

  • Daily Operating Windows: Stations open their doors daily at 6:00 AM. Gates close at 12:00 AM midnight from Mondays to Saturdays, and slightly earlier at 11:30 PM on Sundays and gazetted public holidays.
