The **Universiti LRT station** is a [light rapid transit](/source/Light_rapid_transit) (LRT) elevated station in [Kampung Kerinchi](/source/Kampung_Kerinchi), [Kuala Lumpur](/source/Kuala_Lumpur), served by the [LRT Kelana Jaya Line](/source/LRT_Kelana_Jaya_Line), named as such as it is the main transit station serving the [University of Malaya](/source/University_of_Malaya).

The station is planned as a future interchange with the upcoming *[MRT Circle Line](/source/MRT_Circle_Line)* of the [KVMRT project](/source/Klang_Valley_Mass_Rapid_Transit).[1]

## Location and locality

This station is located on Jalan Kerinchi, beside the eastbound carriageway (Klang-bound) of the [Federal Highway](/source/Federal_Highway_(Malaysia)) with one exit facing the KL Gateway Mall and another facing an exit ramp into the Federal Highway from Jalan Kerinchi. A pedestrian bridge connects the station with the mall across Jalan Kerinchi.

This station serves the local population of the [University of Malaya](/source/University_of_Malaya) and neighbouring Kampung Kerinchi, [Bangsar South](/source/Bangsar_South), [Pantai Dalam](/source/Pantai_Dalam) and Pantai Hill Park.

## Station naming rights program

Main article: [Prasarana Malaysia § Station naming rights program](/source/Prasarana_Malaysia#Station_naming_rights_program)

The station was renamed to **KL Gateway–Universiti** after Suez Capital, a local property developer, was given naming rights by [Prasarana Malaysia](/source/Prasarana_Malaysia). The KL Gateway area is a major redevelopment of the Kampung Kerinchi area which is served by the LRT station, now feature premium residential buildings, a shopping mall and the Menara Suezcap office tower.[2][3]

It is the first of three stations under pilot program of station [naming rights](/source/Naming_rights) which was launched in October 2015.[4] Nonetheless, the contract was presumed to be terminated in 2021 as all signs bearing the KL Gateway prefix were removed from the station. Likewise, station announcements on the trains do not include the prefix as of March 2022.[5]
