The Damansara–Puchong Expressway or Lebuhraya Damansara-Puchong (LDP) E11, is a major expressway in Klang Valley, Selangor in Malaysia. It links major townships in Damansara and Puchong and decreases travel time between them. Besides that, the 40 km (25 mi) expressway provides better accessibility to these areas via links to other expressways in Klang Valley, such as Federal Highway 2, Puchong-Sungai Besi Highway 217, New Pantai Expressway (NPE) E10, Sprint Expressway E23, Sungai Buloh Highway 54, and Kuala Lumpur Middle Ring Road 2 (MRR2) Route 28. This expressway is part of the Kuala Lumpur Middle Ring Road 2 Scheme.
The Kilometre Zero of the Damansara–Puchong Expressway is located at Sri Damansara Interchange, where it connects with the Federal Route 54 and Kuala Lumpur Middle Ring Road 2, Federal Route 28.
The construction of the Damansara–Puchong Expressway was awarded to Lingkaran Trans Kota Holdings Bhd (Litrak). On 23 April 1996, the Concession Agreement was signed between the Government of Malaysia and Litrak for the privatisation of the improvement, upgrading, design, construction, maintenance, operations and management of Damansara–Puchong Expressway.
Construction of the expressway began on September 1996 and completed on December 1998. The work was awarded on a turnkey basis (i.e. design and construct) to Gamuda–Irama Duta Joint Venture (GIDJV) at a cost of RM 1.1 billion. The overall cost for expressway is RM 1.4 billon. The expressway was opened to traffic on 25 January 1999.
