Bandaraya LRT station, also known as Bandaraya–UOB LRT station under the station naming rights programme,[1][2] is an elevated light rapid transit (LRT) station in central Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.[3] The station is on the common route shared by the LRT Ampang Line and LRT Sri Petaling Line. The station opened on 16 December 1996, as part of the first phase of the former STAR LRT system's opening, along with 13 adjoining stations along the Sultan Ismail to Ampang route.

Description

[edit]
The entrance of the station

The station stands between the eastern banks of the Gombak River and an intersection between Jalan Raja Laut, a major thoroughfare along the Gombak River, and Jalan Isfahan. The station is the southernmost LRT station along the Gombak River. The station is also within close proximity of several shopping complexes, such as the present Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) headquarters of which the station is named after, and the Bank Negara Malaysia headquarters.

The station is some 140 m from the Bank Negara Komuter station, a KTM Komuter station served by the Batu Caves–Pulau Sebang Line and Tanjung Malim–Port Klang Line, to which it is linked by a footbridge. The two stations are designated as official connecting stations on official transit maps. It was the first rail transit station in Kuala Lumpur to have a connection with another railway system and, prior to the opening of the LRT Kelana Jaya Line and remaining phases of the STAR lines, the only station of this kind, although there was no network or paid-area integration between the two stations. Bandaraya is also close to bus stops along Jalan Raja Laut, Jalan Dang Wangi and Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman.
