Connection with Kelana Jaya Line

Despite its name, the MRT station is about 700 metres walking distance from Suria KLCC mall and the Petronas Towers, which are directly served by the  KJ10  KLCC LRT station on the 5 Kelana Jaya Line, which is also underground. The MRT station is also just about a 350-meter walking distance from  KJ9  Ampang Park LRT station on the 5 Kelana Jaya Line, which is also an underground station.

According to reports, a bridge or a pedestrian walkway was planned, thus allowing pedestrian access between the MRT station and the LRT station, through the Suria KLCC mall.
