| Abstrait: |
Malaysia’s capital city Kuala Lumpur has been experiencing urbanization growth spurts in the last two decades, in tandem with her rapid economic expansion and progress towards a developed nation. Trailing this economic trend is the need to improve and expand public transportation, particularly in the railway sector. The Klang Valley Mass Rapid Transit (KVMRT) rail transit system was conceived to meet that need and complement the existing public transportation network. The first KVMRT metro line commonly known as the SBK line which connects Sg Buloh township in the northern-west and Kajang in the southern-east, was delivered and fully opened to the public ahead of schedule on 17 July 2017. The success of the project was achieved through significant efforts in surmounting many challenges in different aspects. This paper shares the experiences from the perspective of the Project Delivery Partner (PDP) in the planning, design and construction of the viaducts and station structures. |
