**Maluri station** is an integrated [light rapid transit](/source/Light_rapid_transit) (LRT) and [mass rapid transit](/source/Mass_rapid_transit) (MRT)[2] located on the eastern fringe of [Cheras](/source/Cheras%2C_Kuala_Lumpur), [Kuala Lumpur](/source/Kuala_Lumpur) near and named after [Taman Maluri](/source/Taman_Maluri), a residential housing estate. The station is located along [Jalan Cheras](/source/Jalan_Cheras) (English: *Cheras Road*, also known as Jalan Cheras Lama or *Old Cheras Road*), near the Jalan Cheras Lama exit of the [Sungai Besi Expressway](/source/Sungai_Besi_Expressway), opposite the [AEON](/source/AEON_(company)) Taman Maluri shopping centre and [Sunway Velocity Mall](/source/Sunway_Velocity_Mall). The [Kerayong River](/source/Kerayong_River) also runs beside the station.

The station consists of an elevated station served by the [LRT Ampang Line](/source/LRT_Ampang_Line) (formerly known as STAR LRT) which was opened in 1996, and the underground station served by the [MRT Kajang Line](/source/MRT_Kajang_Line) which was opened on 17 July 2017. Both stations are connected via a paid-area-to-paid-area elevated pedestrian linkway.

Under the [station naming rights programme](/source/Prasarana_Malaysia#Station_naming_rights_program), the MRT station is currently known as **Maluri–AEON MRT station**.[3]

## Station Background

### Colonial era

During [British colonial era](/source/British_Malaya) and until the 1980s, the site of the present-day Maluri station was a [halt](/source/Railway_halt) on the [Keretapi Tanah Melayu](/source/Keretapi_Tanah_Melayu) (KTM) network called Pudoh Ulu or Pudu Ulu.[4]

The MRT station's Entrance B (left) and Entrance D (right) on either side of Jalan Cheras.

### LRT station

The older elevated station serves the [LRT Ampang Line](/source/LRT_Ampang_Line), which is built according to the standard design of the Ampang Line elevated stations.

It consists of two side platforms flanking the double elevated tracks, above a concourse level where the fare gates are located. Both platforms can be reached from the concourse level via [stairways](/source/Stairway), [escalators](/source/Escalator) and [elevators](/source/Elevator). The elevators were a recent addition to the station, and hence, the station was not disabled-friendly until they were installed in 2015.

### MRT station

The MRT station is one of the seven underground stations of the [MRT Kajang Line](/source/MRT_Kajang_Line). The underground station is built directly beneath Jalan Cheras. The station has two underground levels - a concourse level with fare gates, a customer service office, toilets and machinery rooms - and an [island platform](/source/Island_platform) below.

The theme given for the design of the station is "New Generation" and features colourful panels on the exterior and interior walls of the station.[5][6]

The MRT station is the last underground station before the line resurfaces and heads towards [Kajang](/source/Kajang_MRT_station).

### LRT-MRT Linkway

The Maluri station comprises two separate station buildings which are connected via an elevated linkway. An elevated linkway connecting the paid areas of both the LRT and MRT stations allows commuters to transfer seamlessly between the LRT Ampang Line and the MRT Kajang Line at this station.

The linkway was built together with the MRT station. It connects the LRT station at the paid area of the concourse level, and connects directly to Entrance C of the MRT station at the ground level. From Entrance C, escalators, a lift and a staircase go directly down to the paid area of the underground concourse level.

As the linkway is part of the paid area of both stations, there are no direct exits to/from the outside. Unlike the MRT station, the linkway is not air-conditioned.

The LRT platforms

### KTM Ampang branch line

The alignment of the [LRT Ampang Line](/source/LRT_Ampang_Line) at this location uses the alignment of the old [Federated Malay States Railways](/source/Federated_Malay_States_Railways) (FMSR) tracks which ran from Ampang Junction, where the Ampang branch line left the main [West Coast Line](/source/KTM_West_Coast_railway_line) (between today's [Chan Sow Lin](/source/Chan_Sow_Lin_LRT_station) and [Miharja](/source/Miharja_LRT_station) stations) to head to the terminus of the branch line at [Ampang](/source/Ampang_Jaya) town (where today's Ampang Line depot and [Ampang](/source/Ampang_LRT_station) station, the terminus of the [LRT Ampang Line](/source/LRT_Ampang_Line) is located).

This branch line was opened on 1 May 1914 and was mostly to cater to the tin mines in the Ampang area. However, no railway station is known to have existed at this location during this period.

The tracks crossed Jalan Cheras as a level crossing until the alignment was converted to an elevated rail line for the construction of the LRT in the 1990s where a railway bridge was built over the road.

### LRT Ampang Line

The LRT station was constructed as part of the development of the former STAR LRT project in the 1990s. It was completed and opened together with the line on 16 December 1996, along with 13 other stations between the [Sultan Ismail](/source/Sultan_Ismail_LRT_station) and the [Ampang](/source/Ampang_LRT_station).

The line was the first LRT line to be operational in Malaysia.

### MRT Kajang Line

Construction of the underground MRT station began in 2012 following the official launch of the construction of the MRT Kajang Line. Since the station is located beneath Jalan Cheras, various diversions of the road had to be carried out throughout the construction of the station. Decking above the work site was also erected to enable traffic to run while station box excavation and other construction work proceeded underneath.

The station was opened on 17 July 2017 together with the opening of Phase Two of the MRT line from [Muzium Negara](/source/Muzium_Negara_MRT_station) to [Kajang](/source/Kajang_MRT_station).
