Prasarana to award LRT 3 line contracts in May


President and group chief executive officer of the urban public transport operator and asset owner Datuk Azmi Abdul Aziz said it would try to offer as many packages as possible in ensuring optimal participation from those companies that had made it through the pre-qualication process of the new 36 km line, linking Bandar Utama to Klang.

KUALA LUMPUR: Prasarana Malaysia Bhd will start dishing out the major contracts for the 37km Light Rail Transit 3 (LRT3) project in May.

President and group chief executive officer Datuk Seri Azmi Abdul Aziz said the transportation group expects to commence work for LRT 3 between March and May this year.

“We already completed some part of the land acquisitions and would see some early phase of the project to start at least by March,” he told reporters at a media briefing on Wednesday.

He added that the value of the contracts have yet to be finalised.

The 37km LRT 3 would have 26 stations, with 2km of the alignment to be underground. It was said to cost about RM9bil.
