The Putrajaya Monorail is an incomplete monorail system in Putrajaya. Putrajaya was originally to have a light rail system, and construction of tunnels for said system was ongoing, when plans were changed, and a monorail plan was selected. It calls for two lines; Line 1, which is 12 km monorail route with 17 stations and Line 2, which is 6 km monorail route with 6 stations.[1]
Construction was halted in 2004, and will probably resume as the city becomes more populated.[2] The monorail will include the Monorail Suspension Bridge, currently incomplete,[3] and the Putra Bridge.[4] The line would allow transfers to KLIA Transit, connecting to Kuala Lumpur and Kuala Lumpur International Airport, at Putrajaya/Cyberjaya ERL station. The project will cost RM400 million.[5]
