It is one of the stations of the [MRT Kajang Line](/source/MRT_Kajang_Line). It was opened on 16 December 2016.[2] This station is located next to the [1 Utama Shopping Centre](/source/1_Utama), one of the biggest shopping malls in the [Klang Valley](/source/Klang_Valley).[3] Other well-known landmarks near the station are Sri Pentas (headquarters of terrestrial TV channels owned by [Media Prima](/source/Media_Prima)), the One World Hotel, Plaza IBM and [KPMG](/source/KPMG) Tower, which are linked to the station via a pedestrian link-bridge. This station will serve as a connecting station with the future [LRT Shah Alam Line](/source/LRT_Shah_Alam_Line), a [light rapid transit](/source/Light_rapid_transit) (LRT) line currently under construction which will link Bandar Utama with [Johan Setia](/source/Johan_Setia_LRT_station) in [Klang](/source/Klang_(city)).[4] ## Station features Concourse level of the station. The station is located beside the Damansara-Puchong Expressway (LDP) directly behind the Sri Pentas Building in Bandar Utama. The station's support columns are located between the expressway and the water channel, which runs parallel to the expressway. The station adopts the standard elevated station design for the Kajang Line with two side platforms above the concourse level. However, unlike the other elevated stations, there are no escalators, lifts or staircases linking the station directly to ground level, nor are there any lay-bys for buses, taxis and cars at ground level directly below the station. Access to the station is via link bridges from the 1Powerhouse Building, where the feeder bus stop and [park and ride](/source/Park_and_ride) facilities are located, and from the One World Hotel and [1 Utama](/source/1_Utama) complex. ### Station layout L2 Platform Level Side platform Platform 1: 9 Kajang Line towards KG35 Kajang (→) Platform 2: 9 Kajang Line towards KG04 Kwasa Damansara (←) Side platform L1 Concourse Faregates to paid area, escalators to platforms, ticketing machines, customer service office, station control, shops, Entrance A to pedestrian link bridge to 1Powerhouse building, Entrance B to link bridge to 1 Utama Shopping Centre, emergency staircase to ground level from back-of-house. G Ground Level Emergency services parking bays. ### Exits and entrances Access to the station is via two pedestrian link bridges: one connecting Entrance A of the station to the neighbouring 1Powerhouse Building, and another connecting Entrance B to 1 Utama. The second link bridge was opened on 1 February 2018.[5] All these buildings are owned by Bandar Utama City Corporation Sdn Bhd, making this station the only one on the Kajang Line where access to the station is via properties owned by other entities. There is no access to the station from the ground level directly beneath the station along the [Damansara–Puchong Expressway](/source/Damansara%E2%80%93Puchong_Expressway) (LDP). The lay-by and stairs at this location are for emergency purposes only. The 1Powerhouse Building houses the feeder bus stop at the ground level, and the park-and-ride facility for the station, which takes up two basement levels. Taxi and private vehicle drop-off areas are also located on the ground floor of the building. Kajang Line station Entrance Location Destination Picture A Pedestrian link bridge to 1Powerhouse Building Feeder bus stop, park and ride, 1Powerhouse, Persiaran Bandar Utama B Pedestrian link bridge to 1 Utama Shopping Centre (1 Utama E) 1 Utama Shopping Centre, One World Hotel, IBM Tower, KPMG Tower, 1 First Avenue, Sri Pentas ## History Future corridor of [Shah Alam Line](/source/Shah_Alam_Line) for Bandar Utama LRT station During the planning stage, the station was referred to as One Utama, as it was situated next to the [1 Utama Shopping Centre](/source/1_Utama_Shopping_Centre). However, it was officially renamed Bandar Utama prior to its opening in 2016 after the suburb it is situated in, rather than the name of the shopping complex. A pedestrian bridge linking the station to the Burhanuddin Helmi section of Taman Tun Dr Ismail (TTDI) residential area, which is geographically located directly across the LDP from the station was also proposed as part of the construction plans. This would have enabled residents of the northern part of the residential area to have access to the station, while the southern part would be served by [Taman Tun Dr Ismail](/source/Taman_Tun_Dr_Ismail_MRT_station) station which lies 200 metres from the TTDI Wet Market. However, the TTDI Residents Association (RA) objected to the link,[6] citing parking by MRT commuters along Burhanuddin Helmi's roads and illegal stalls as a result of the link. The RA collected signatures of objections from residents, despite MRT Corp's pleas to proceed with the pedestrian bridge for the benefit of the residents. In the end, in July 2014, MRT acceded to the objection.[7] Once operational however, there were voices of dissent[8] on the lack of connectivity for the residents of TTDI's northern tip. From its opening on 16 December 2016 till 31 January 2018, the only access to the station was from the 1Powerhouse Building via the pedestrian overhead bridge at Entrance A. A temporary linkway to One World Hotel and subsequently 1 Utama from the station's Entrance B was opened on 1 February 2018, allowing a more direct connection to the shopping centre.[5] On 11 July 2020, with the completion of 1 Utama E (an annexe block and extension of the shopping centre), the temporary linkway was replaced with direct access to 1 Utama E. ## Bus services ### Feeder buses With the opening of the [Kajang Line](/source/Kajang_Line), feeder buses also began operating linking the residential areas of [Taman Tun Dr Ismail](/source/Taman_Tun_Dr_Ismail), [Bandar Utama](/source/Bandar_Utama) and Kampung Sungai Penchala with this station. The feeder buses operate from the station's feeder bus stop at the adjacent 1Powerhouse building, accessed via Entrance A of the station. These buses do not stop at the [Bandar Utama bus hub](/source/Bandar_Utama_bus_hub).

The station has an adjoining park and ride facility which is located at levels B1 and B2 of the 1Powerhouse Building. Access to the park and ride facility is via Entrance A and the pedestrian link bridge that connects the station with 1Powerhouse. The facility has around 500 bays. The park and ride facility is provided by the owners of the 1Powerhouse Building, Bandar Utama City Centre Sdn Bhd, and not the owner or operator of the MRT Kajang Line. As a result, the parking charges are determined by the owner. MRT users (except for those who board trains at six stations nearest to Bandar Utama MRT station) are charged a flat rate of RM4.30 per entry per day. As the parking facility does not use the [Touch 'n Go](/source/Touch_'n_Go) electronic purse system for payment, MRT users must verify their status with their Touch 'n Go cards used on the MRT at the parking payment machines at the park and ride facility in order to enjoy the flat rate. MRT users who board trains at the [Kota Damansara](/source/Kota_Damansara_MRT_station), [Surian](/source/Surian_MRT_station), [Mutiara Damansara](/source/Mutiara_Damansara_MRT_station), [Taman Tun Dr Ismail](/source/Taman_Tun_Dr_Ismail_MRT_station), [Phileo Damansara](/source/Phileo_Damansara_MRT_station) and [Pusat Bandar Damansara](/source/Pusat_Bandar_Damansara_MRT_station) stations do not qualify for the flat rate charges (because the flat fee is only applicable to MRT riders who have travelled more than 3 stations away from Bandar Utama). The park and ride facility is separate from the upper floor parking, which is meant for 1Powerhouse occupants, including guests of the Avante Hotel, which is part of the building. Park and ride flat rate charges are not available at the upper floor parking, where hourly parking charges apply. ## Gallery ### Station - View of the station from a train running on tracks over the Damansara-Puchong Expressway - View of the station and the One World Hotel next to it - An electronic board at the entrance of the station - View of the station's faregates at Entrance B from the concourse - Faregates leading to Entrance A of the station - Commuters entering the faregates from Entrance B of the station - Retail outlet at the concourse level near Entrance B of the station - Future concourse of the [Shah Alam Line](/source/Shah_Alam_Line) - Future customer service centre of the Shah Alam Line ### 1Powerhouse (Entrance A), Feeder Bus Stop and Park and Ride - Pedestrian link over Persiaran Bandar Utama heading towards Entrance A of the station from 1Powerhouse - Pedestrian link heading towards 1Powerhouse from Entrance A of the station - Entrance into 1Powerhouse from the pedestrian link - Level G concourse of the 1Powerhouse Building - Feeder bus stop at Level C of the 1Powerhouse Building along Persiaran Bandar Utama - Feeder bus stop at Level C of the 1Powerhouse Building along Persiaran Bandar Utama - Level B1 of the 1Powerhouse Building, which is one of two park and ride levels - Entrances to the park and ride facility (right) and the drop-off lay-by (left) at Persiaran Bandar Utama ### 1 Utama Pedestrian Link (Entrance B) - Commuters heading towards Entrance B of the station - Commuters heading towards the former temporary pedestrian link to One World Hotel - Entrance B heading into the station - Commuters using the temporary pedestrian link leading to the station - Former walkway leading to the temporary link bridge - Former walkway from the station leading to One World Hotel - Signage near the lobby of One World Hotel announcing the opening of the temporary link to the station from the hotel - The pedestrian link bridge connecting the station with One World Hotel being constructed as at the end of June 2017 - Construction of the pedestrian link bridge in October 2017 - Completed and opened pedestrian link bridge in February 2018 - Construction of the pedestrian link bridge in February 2017 - Construction of the pedestrian link bridge in October 2017 - The pedestrian link bridge, the day after opening on 1 February 2018 ## See also - [Kajang line](/source/Kajang_line) - [Shah Alam line](/source/Shah_Alam_line) - [Bandar Utama](/source/Bandar_Utama) - [Taman Tun Dr Ismail](/source/Taman_Tun_Dr_Ismail) - [1 Utama Shopping Centre](/source/1_Utama_Shopping_Centre) ## References 1. **[^](#cite_ref-1)** Meng Yew Choong (26 November 2014).
