The LRT Shah Alam Line, previously known as the LRT Bandar Utama–Klang Line, LRT Bandar Utama-Johan Setia Line or simply LRT Johan Setia Line,^[7] is a medium-capacity light rapid transit (LRT) line which will be serving the Shah Alam and Klang regions on the western side of the Klang Valley, Malaysia. It will be the third LRT line, and the fourth fully automated and driverless rail system in the Klang Valley region. The line will be operated as part of the Rapid KL system by Rapid Rail, a subsidiary of Prasarana Malaysia.^[8][9] It was announced by Prasarana Malaysia on 24 April 2013.^[10][11]

Once completed, the line will form part of the Klang Valley Integrated Transit System. It is numbered 11 and coloured sky blue on official transit maps.

The line is one out of four rapid transit lines in the Klang Valley that does not serve KL Sentral, the other three being the Ampang Line, Sri Petaling Line and the Putrajaya Line, as well as the first rapid transit line in the Klang Valley that is entirely outside the borders of the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur.

In May 2014, the Shah Alam LRT was proposed to begin from Bandar Utama, Kelana Jaya, through areas of Glenmarie, HICOM-Glenmarie Industrial Park, Shah Alam Stadium, Shah Alam city centre, UiTM, I-City, Bukit Raja Shopping Centre, Taman Eng Ann, Bandar Klang and then heading straight on to Johan Setia.^[12] This was later confimed October 2025 following the tabling of Budget 2015 where the Prime Minister announced that the government will fund RM9 billion to build the LRT project linking Bandar Utama to Shah Alam and Klang.^[13]

In 2015, the public display of the line will was held for three months beginning in Mayat seven locations – Shah Alam City Council, Petaling Jaya City Council, Public Land Transportation Commission office in Platinum Sentral, Klang Municipal Council and the Kelana Jaya, Masjid Jamek and Pasar Seni LRT stations.^{[14][15][16][17][18]} It was also announced that construction works to start by Q1-2016.^[19][20][21] In September 2015, Prasarana Malaysia Berhad announced that Malaysian Resources Corporation Berhad (MRCB) and George Kent Sdn Bhd joint venture (JV) has been appointed as the Project Delivery Partner (PDP) for the LRT project.^[22] In October 2015, Prasarana agreed to change the route of the LRT line, which was originally planned to cut through the housing area of Taman Muhibah in Klang to Pasar Besar Klang (Klang wet market) at Jalan Meru. Residents of Taman Muhibah had been objecting the proposed line which would run through their housing area.^[23] The LRT project was officially launched by the former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak in August 2016.^[24]

After the fall of BN led Federal government in May 2018, the new PH led Federal government, citing the mounting national debt proposed various cost cutting measures to a lists of federal government projects, including the LRT3 project. The Lien Hoe, Temasya, SIRIM, Bukit Raja and Bandar Botanik stations were converted into provisional stations while the underground station of Persiaran Hishamuddin was cancelled. The reasons cited for the changes made were due to the high cost of the project, unnecessary tunneling for the underground portion of the line and low ridership in the area. The provisional stations however will be built once the demand in the area picks up.^[25][26]

Other cost-cutting exercises including the swapping of six-car trains for three-car trains, cutting down the total trains from 42 to 22, reducing the size of the stations to four-car length and ditching costly acceleration techniques. The completion date also was extended from 2020 to 2024.^[25][26]

The planned completion date of entire Shah Alam line in 2024 as announced in 2018 were delayed a year later due to impact of Malaysian movement control order and further testing of the operations. The first delay for overall opening the line was announced in July 2023 where Transport Minister Anthony Loke have mentioned that it would be expected to be operational by 1 March 2025.^[27]

During the Budget 2024 presentation held on 13 October 2023, Finance Minister Anwar Ibrahim announced the reintegration of the five stations that were previously under provisional status (Tropicana, Temasya, Raja Muda, Bukit Raja Selatan, Bandar Botanik) to be built alongside the rest of the Shah Alam Line with the exception of the sole underground station, Persiaran Hishamuddin, which remains cancelled.^[28]

In July 2024, the opening of the LRT line further delayed to August or September 2025.^[29][30] In February 2025, the opening of the LRT line was confirmed to be on 30 September 2025, with physical work reaching 98.16% completion. The construction is expected to be completed on 31 July and then handed over to Prasarana. Trial runs will be conducted from mid-April to end of June 2025.^[31][32][33]

Location of Shah Alam Line

Previously, a total of 26 stations were planned, with a proposed two-kilometre distance between each station. One station was to be an underground station, with the other 25 being elevated.

The LRT interchange with existing Rapid KL lines at  KG09  Bandar Utama on the MRT Kajang Line and  KJ27  Glenmarie on the LRT Kelana Jaya Line.

The line currently has 25 permanent stations under construction.^[34]

• Initially, the Klang LRT station (now Pasar Jawa) was planned as an interchange station with the Klang Komuter station. However, due to cost-reduction efforts and objections from Little India Klang business residents, the station will be built beside Emporium Makan and Shaw Centrepoint Mall, 700 meters away from the KTM Komuter station. This would have resulted in a same-name but different stations situation, similar to Salak Selatan LRT/KTM and Sentul LRT/KTM stations. The station has since been given a new name. ^[36][37]
• The line will be connected with 3 retail malls and shopping centres, namely the Shaw Center Point (The Store), Lotus's Klang (formerly TESCO Bukit Tinggi) and AEON Bukit Tinggi in Klang.^[38]
• The trains will have a maximum operating speed of 80 km/h (17% faster than the current LRT Kelana Jaya Line) with the capacity of carrying 36,720 passengers per hour per direction.^[39]
