Why are Kota Damansara and Plaza Phoenix stations shown as interchanges? BRT?

Yep, the videos make it especially clear that PBD and Pasar Rakyat stations are future interchanges with lines 2 and 3. However, that still doesn't explain Kota Damansara and Plaza Phoenix.

The only underground stations are KL Sentral, Pasar Seni, Merdeka, Bukit Bintang Central, Pasar Rakyat, Cochrane and Maluri. Hence PBD is above ground. The future Line 2 may be underground though.

So I guess no idea why Kota Damansara and Plaza Phoenix are marked as interchanges then?

Looks like it. Thanks for the info too.

Yeah, trying to figure out why. It could have been an error. Pity the media never asks such questions eh? LOL. The other option could be for some form of BRT. I don't foresee another MRT line running from Kota Damansara, nor LRT either. Could someone check up on the proposed BRT corridors in KL?

Thanks Kampung. So it looks like Kota Damansara is indeed interchange with a proposed BRT route. Is Alam Damai anywhere near Plaza Phoenix?

Makes sense then that they would try to connect all of them together. I realised that you can also see the outlines of the lines being planned for both BRT and MRT/LRT in that map.

Looks like MRT line 3 might go through Titiwangsa and Sentul.

Certainly seems that way from the image. Good job gathering all the info!

MRT Line 2 and Line 3 will be going through areas we have not considered. MRT Corp has already hinted so. Just FYI.

Yeah, I do. Someone I know works there, but we stay in two different countries.

^ Where is that located at Kampung?

Amazing how the Cheras - Kajang sector is in stage 2, due 2017 yet it seems to be progressing faster than the stage 1 of Sungei Buloh - Semantan.

Yes, rebar is the correct word. If I'm not wrong, the Cheras section of contracts was actually released first?

Finally seeing some progress that is visible along phase 1 of the project. Will be exciting once the viaducts are laid and stations start to go up.

Thanks for all the photos Kampung

^^ Nice colour for the cutterhead. Not sure which machine this is. The orange and white one that has been assembled in Cochrane is machine S-774.
