History

Bandar Tun Razak is a Malaysian at-grade rapid transit station situated near and named after the Kuala Lumpur township of Cheras. The station is part of the Sri Petaling-Sentul Timur branch of the Ampang Line (formerly known as STAR, and the Ampang and Sri Petaling Lines).

The station was opened on July 11, 1998, as part of the second phase of the STAR system's opening, including 7 new stations along the Chan Sow Lin-Sri Petaling route.

Design

The Bandar Tun Razak station was built on sloped terrain, designed with a single at-grade ticket area towards Bandar Tun Razak and a platform level below. The platform level consists of two side platforms along two tracks for trains traveling in opposite direction, while the ticket area's floorspace acts as a crossing between the tracks for access onto both platforms. Both levels are only linked via stairways and escalators, rendering the station unfriendly to disabled users.

The styling of the station is similar to most other stations in the line, featuring curved roofs supported by latticed frames, and white plastered walls and pillars.

Sultan Ismail

Sultan Ismail station is -only?- Ampang Line station serving the Chow Kit area

-- station is adjoined to and named after -- Road, a major roadway that spans Chow Kit to the west and the Golden Triangle to the southest, to the north; its immediate line towards Sentul Timur station crosses -- Road itself, while the station runs parellel to a backroad connecting -- Road, -- Road.

Like the Bandaraya station, SUltan Ismail station is intended to serve the predominatly commercial strip along -- Road and the -- River, as well as serving two nearby schools (-- and --). However, Sultan Ismail is further from -- Road, and lacks any connectivity with KTM railway line that runs parellel the the Ampang Line, a linkage which allows Bandaraya station to serve as an interchange with Bank Negara station, a KTM Komuter halt.

Bangsar

Location

The Bangsar station
