History

At the early stages of the project before the finalisation of station names, the Kota Damansara MRT station was referred to by the working name of PJU5 MRT Station. [3] The switch to the name Kota Damansara caused some confusion as there was another station that had "Kota Damansara" as its working name, which was later given name Kwasa Damansara.

Bus Services

Feeder bus service

With the opening of the MRT Sungai Buloh-Kajang Line, feeder buses also began operating linking the station with several housing and industrial areas in Kota Damansara. The feeder buses operate from the station's feeder bus stops adjacent to the station.
