The alignment of this highway will traverse north to south of Kuala Lumpur and will serve areas such as Tunku Abdul Rahman University of Management and Technology, Wangsa Maju, Setiawangsa, Ampang, the Tun Razak Exchange and Bandar Malaysia development corridor as well as providing a connection to Kuala Lumpur-Karak Experessay to the east coast. It was built and maintained by Ekovest Berhad. It is formerly known as DUKE Phase 3.[1] [2]
Most sections of this expressway are elevated. It has seven interchanges and a few toll plazas which are all elevated as well. It is a dual-two carriageway with six and four lanes (three or two lanes on either direction) without an emergency lane. It is constructed according to JKR R6 design standards being defined in the Arahan Teknik 8/86: A Guide on Geometric Design of Roads (controlled-access expressway with design speed limit of 120km/h and a lane width of 3.56m (11.68feet)).[3]
It is formerly known as DUKE Phase 3, and a part of the DUKE Extension Expressway Project but upon construction it is changed to a different name and uses instead.[4] On 12 April 2021, the expressway has been given a title on the Malaysia Book Of Records for two categories, which are the longest prestressed T-shaped concrete bridge and longest T-shaped prestressed concrete beam. There are 424 BH beams used, and the longest bridge that used the BH Girder is 67.5 meters long.[5] [6]
