The 37-kilometer LRT3 (initial name) or LRT Bandar Utama–Klang line (interim name) BKL or formerly known as Shah Alam line (intro name) is a light rail transit (LRT) line that is slated to be the third LRT system in Klang Valley. The line will be operated by Rapid Rail Sdn Bhd. It was announced by the Prasarana Malaysia Berhad (Prasarana) on 24 April 2013. The line is currently referred to as Klang Valley LRT Line 3 or LRT3 by Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD).

When completed, the line will be one of the components of the Klang Valley Integrated Transit System.


Interchange station

A total of 26 stations are planned, with proposed sub-two kilometre distances between them. There will be one underground station in the line, with the other 25 being elevated stations. The LRT3 will accommodate 6,000 parking bays.

The LRT3 will feature a number of integrated stations. The planned interchanges are the Bandar Utama MRT station, Station 3 of the LRT Kelana Jaya Line, the Pelabuhan Klang KTM station and two stations in Shah Alam to the BRT Federal line (future).

The alignment is based on the Final Railway Scheme approved by the Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD).
