Land acquisition process for MRT3 to start next year

 

Loke Siew Fook says the alignment for MRT3 has yet to be finalised and the transport ministry is open to discussions with landowners.

PUTRAJAYA: MRT Corp will begin its land acquisition in stages from next year for the Mass Rapid Transit Line 3 (MRT3) Circle Line project.

The project will take two years to be finalised, said transport minister Loke Siew Fook.

Speaking after the lease agreement signing ceremony between MRT Corp and the federal lands commissioner (PTP) here today, Loke said to minimise the cost of land acquisition for the government, MRT Corp would actively cooperate with property developers to integrate the MRT3 stations.

“I would like to state here that the government has approved the allocation for the process of land acquisition for the MRT3 project.

“Our approach towards the land acquisition process will combine prudent and courteous measures to ensure minimal social impact on the community,” he said.

Without giving any details on the amount allocated for that purpose, Loke said the acquisition process was expected to involve 1,012 plots of land, covering 842 private lots of land, 133 parcels of government land (133 lots) and 37 others.

“There is a mechanism to minimise the cost for the government and we are also open to discussions with landowners,” he said.

He said the alignment for MRT3 had yet to be finalised. - FMT
