The Genting Klang–Pahang Highway or Jalan Genting Klang and Jalan Pahang, as it is locally known, (Federal Route ) is a major highway in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The Genting Klang–Pahang Highway connects a number of urban and residential areas like Titiwangsa, Sentul, Setapak, Taman P.Ramlee Wangsa Maju, Taman Bunga Raya, Taman Melati, Taman Permata and Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman to the city. Most locals do not consider it a highway as, unlike the other highways which are "closed" roads, Jalan Genting Klang is also a busy road with many commercial properties and condominiums, which are popular among students of Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman.

History

The highway was originally upgraded from single carriageway to dual carriageway in the 1980s. In 1995, the highway was taken over by the Metramac Corporation Sdn Bhd which also managed the Cheras Highway (Federal Route ), East-West Link Expressway and Kuala Lumpur-Seremban Expressway (both ). The Jalan Pahang toll plaza (city centre bound) was in operation from 1 August 1995 and the motorist would pay the RM 0.50 tolls until the toll plaza was abolished 13 August 2004. This highway is now maintained by the Kuala Lumpur City Hall or Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur (DBKL).

Current developments
