They object: Subang Alam tour

As you know, TRANSIT has been following the list of objections related to the proposed Railways Scheme for the extension of the Kelana Jaya and Ampang LRT lines.

A group of residents of Putra Heights and Subang Alam have expressed their concerns about the route of the proposed Kelana Jaya LRT extension between their communities.

Their argument is that running the LRT along the Tenaga Nasional power lines would require the electricity towers to be moved closer to Subang Alam, which would bring the towers closer to their homes.

In addition, they argue that the extension of the LRT between Putra Heights and Subang Alam should be replaced by an LRT extension into Subang Alam, which will serve a larger area with a better mix of residential, commercial and industrial space.

TRANSIT was invited to join the tour of the proposed route between Subang Alam and Putra Heights. Also present was the MP for Kota Raja and officers from the MPSJ and MBSA
