Just curious because someone pointed it out last time, majority of the people protesting against KIDEX is not really the younger generation.
Even my dad that went to the hearing and rally, said mainly is retired people that have participated in the rally and their complain is KIDEX would affect their current live hood.

But isn't that common in a growing city especially in the main cities?
Ultimately these highway are meant to reduce congestion and travel time which means more to cater to the need of the younger work force and generation.
So I'm curious why anti KIDEX?

coming MRT4

Really, where's the source??

NIMBY

Also car centric urban development like building highway in urban centre was not a wise solution in long run because highway will eventually jam and inefficient bring down the travel time and just funnel the jam everywhere else. Pushing public transport development like LRT/MRT and BRT or even bus services with high frequencies were more sustainable in long run so people less rely on car and jam up the road

If only the Kidex be converted to a "sparse" LRT line connecting to MRT2/LRT SP, KJ LRT and MRT1. This improves connectivity and reduces traffic especially at the LDP.

Perhaps only in dream....

Im glad the mrt has avoided my apartment, the first plan was for them to take over some area of my house. They came by and presented, th residents were fuming and some were even crying..if the first plan went ahead some block will be 10 meters away from the train flyover...its so damn close. Now based on latest map they are making a big turn, avoiding my house completely..location of the station is the same it would take me 5 mins walk.

Mind sharing the station name??

Salak selatan..if you notice on the new layout there's an awkward turn..

Were they offering any compensation? If they had moved forward with the initial plan

Completely agree with you on the agenda of pushing public transport to cater to the people and improve connectivity and infrastructure.
However realistically it is more likely they will build another highway...
We as Malaysian are too used to driving cars, just look at July 2025 - 76 Thousand new car.... That's one month!!!!
So I think it's no point pushing for an agenda with very little chance of it being materialize within a short span of time.

That is true. Build more public transport like LRT/MRT and provide feeder bus, but the overall infrastructure is not pedestrian friendly. In the end the public transport facilities not fully utilised. It could be convenient for us to walk from home to LRT stations, but are all destinations conducive for pedestrians or pedestrians friendly? How many times we tried to walk from LRT destinations to where we want to get to then realise we are fighting with life to cross the road to get to our final destination? Or we walked on proper pedestrian walkway for 100m then suddenly need to walk on road kerb without pedestrians walkway and need to keep watching out for oncoming traffic?

Not advocating inferiority mindset but tried to visit Singapore and move around with just public transport, you will know what I meant. Building more MRT or LRT is not the only solution, it is the overall ecosystem to supplement it.

feeder bus with higher frequencies are really needed. At my area, feeder bus is 45 mins interval for PEAK hour. that's too long for peak hour man

Mind sharing which apartment? Near Salak Selatan?

What's the situation about the Kompleks Duta / Jalan Kuching station? There is supposed to be an interchange with the KTM there. How come that area got 2 provisional stations

This seems too close, why are they have two stations (albeit provisional), so close by?

Also, the second provisional station makes sense, there is nothing there.

But the original Kompleks Duta station was supposed to serve the condos. I wonder what changed

Of course..the initial plan..i kid you not... was for the flyover to be directly above my current guard house!! lol
They presented the 3d rendering....lol i cant imagine having to go through that daily..but i feel the compensation will be huge too lah.

Now no more permanent station downgrade to provisional station, only built the station when there's enough demand. Same goes to Taman Hillview station

Gonna guess it's around Bandar Sri Permaisuri area near LRT Salak Selatan side. Maybe somewhere between Cendana Apartment or Cengal+Cemara Apartment idk?

Yes,good boost for sri pemaisuri

From this video, at 23:10, the Sri Permaisuri MRT3 stn is likely the green land located in between Vista Amani Condo and SMK Sri Mulia

At 24:26, the Salak Selatan MRT3 stn is likely there but no exact marking.
My guess is the "available land" in between pusat penjaja and the existing LRT stn
