Shah Alam now has two urban rail options. The new LRT3 Shah Alam Line (opened June 2026, 20 stations) runs through the city into Petaling Jaya and the wider network; the older KTM Komuter Port Klang Line stops at Padang Jawa. LRT3 offers higher frequency and reach across the Klang Valley, while KTM is handy along the Klang–KL corridor. The best choice depends on where you’re headed.

LRT3 in detail
The LRT3 Shah Alam Line is the game-changer: 20 stations, frequent urban service and connections into Petaling Jaya and the wider rail network. For most daily commuters heading toward PJ or interchanging onto other lines, it’s the more flexible option.
KTM Komuter in detail
The KTM Komuter Port Klang Line has served the corridor for years, stopping at Padang Jawa on Shah Alam’s west side. It’s useful for direct journeys along the Klang–KL axis, though frequency is lower than the LRT3.
