Source-derived summary

The Kwasa Damansara MRT station is a mass rapid transit (MRT) station that serves the future township of Kwasa Damansara in Selangor, Malaysia, which is currently being developed. It is the first station and northern terminus of both the MRT Kajang Line and MRT Putrajaya Line.

The ceremony to launch Phase One of the Kajang Line by then Prime Minister of Malaysia Najib Razak was held at this station on 15 December 2016, and the station was officially opened on 16 December 2016. The station later became an interchange station between the MRT Kajang Line and the MRT Putrajaya Line which opened to the public on 16 June 2022. Both lines currently terminate at this station.

Station features

Station location

The station is located within the Kwasa Damansara development project, one of two stations to serve this future township. As it is located off Jalan Sungai Buloh, a new access road to the station was built.

Although the tracks at the station are elevated, the station building itself is at-grade, the only one of its kind on the Kajang Line, but similar to several stations on the Kelana Jaya Line.

The station has three levels, with the ground floor being the concourse and the two floors above being platform levels. The two elevated platforms are island platforms, allowing the station to have four platforms to enable it to function as a cross-platform interchange between Kajang Line and the Putrajaya Line.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Kwasa Damansara MRT station” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Kwasa, Damansara and station provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

The strongest evidence will usually combine a dated visual record with documents produced by the authority responsible for the place. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 18, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q22087857. Authority coordinates are 3.176, 101.573. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2016 and 2022.

Critical limits

Modern boundaries and familiar names can conceal earlier jurisdictions or structures that do not align with the present site. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Treat names, boundaries and functions as historically changeable. Maps, plans, inventories and administrative records can clarify what the place meant at different dates.
