Salak Selatan is a Malaysian at-grade rapid transit station situated near and named after the Kuala Lumpur township of Salak South (Malay: "Salak Selatan"). The station is part of the Sri Petaling-Sentul Timur branch of the Ampang Line (formerly known as STAR, and the Ampang and Sri Petaling Lines).

The station was opened on July 11, 1998, as part of the second phase of the STAR system's opening, including 7 new stations along the Chan Sow Lin-Sri Petaling route.

Location

The Salak Selatan station is intended to serve the incorporated town of Salak South directly to the east; the station itself located behind a row of shophouses along Salak South's main carriageway, "Jalan Sungai Besi" (Malay; English: Sungai Besi Road), towards the east. The stations exits to both Salak South to the west and "Bandar Sri Permaisuri" (Splendourous Queen Town) to the east.

The Salak Selatan station was constructed along two leveled tracks, reusing the now defunct Federated Malay States Railway and Malayan Railway route between Kuala Lumpur, Ampang and Salak South.

The station is currently one of two railway stations serving the Salak South locality, the other being a KTM Komuter station bearing the same name. While the STAR station is considerably closer to Salak Selatan, the Komuter station is located some 400 metres south from the town. Unlike other examples in Kuala Lumpur, the two stations are not noted on transit maps as interchange stations between the two lines.

Design

Overall, the Salak Selatan station was built as as a low-rise station along two tracks for trains traveling in opposite direction. Because the station is nearly at-grade and features two side platforms, the station designates individual ticketing areas for each of the station's two platforms at their level, ensuring access to trains traveling the opposite direction is not freely possible. The station also serves as a public crossing across the railway tracks between Salak South and "Bandar Sri Permaisuri" via a walkway running underneath the STAR line and platforms.

The principal styling of the station is similar to most other stations in the line, featuring multi-tiered roofs supported by latticed frames, and white plastered walls and pillars. Because stairways are only used to link street level with the station's ticket areas and platforms, the station is not accommodative to disabled users.

Salak Selatan LRT station as the rapidKL bus hub

Salak Selatan LRT station is also a rapidKL bus hub for local shuttle (TEMPATAN) bus route no T433 which serves the area of Bandar Sri Permaisuri & it is also accessible via other rapidKL buses.
