Bandar Saujana Putra Interchange is a major interchange of the North-South Expressway Central Link in Malaysia. This interchange was opened to traffic on 5 March 2008 at 6:00 pm. It is also a main route to South Klang Valley Expressway in the future.
This interchange has been delayed for 2 years. It has caused much hardship for the residents of Saujana Putra who has to go through several rural roads just to get to a main exit. This journey takes roughly 40mins and the condition of the road is terrible. In fact, you can barely call it a road.
The residents have been given multiple promises by the developer LBS that they will complete this interchange. LBS has used this interchange as their main selling point for the past 2 years, at least than 5 different dates has been verbally announced as the opening of the interchange. Bandar Saujana Putra is claimed by LBS to be their pet mega project. In fact they have trumpeted throughtout various articles, interviews and promotions that Bandar Saujana Putra is "The Pearl of LBS". Looks like future buyers will enjoy the benefits, whereas the initial buyers who supplied the investment necessary for LBS to undertake this mega project, suffer the losses.
Latest news is that the interchange's launching has been delayed indefinitely. The only information we got regarding this is that LBS, the developer, owes money to the Elite/Plus Highway so that Elite/Plus has stopped the opening. What confuses the residents are that why doesn't Elite/Plus just open the interchange and then chase whatever payment due to them through the legal system.
