The station is a part of the Sri Petaling Line Extension Project proposed in 2006. The station was opened on 31 March 2016 as a part of the second phase, which includes another 3 stations in Puchong.
The extension of both Sri Petaling Line and Kelana Jaya Line were announced on 29 August 2006 by then Malaysian Deputy Prime Minister Mohd Najib Abdul Razak. [4] This is also confirmed by then Prime Minister of Malaysia Tun Abdullah Badawi in his National Budget speech in 2006. [5] The current site of the station was confirmed in 2007 and was initially named Bandar Metro Puchong station. [6]
Construction started in 2010, [7] while fault free test runs of the trains started on 22 January 2016. [8] Although it faced some delays, [9] the station was opened on 31 March 2016, as a part of the second phase of the extension. [10]
The construction was complained to have caused damage on roads and shops to the nearby areas. [11] The construction of the extension was said to have caused a flash flood in the area near the station. [12] [13] The slow progress of the construction was complained by residences nearby, [14] and it had caused disruption to the shop owners nearby as it occupies the parking space provided in the area. [15]
An Indian man was found dead 100 metres away from the station. [16] Based on the station's CCTV footage, the man was walking on the track before he was hit by the train. [17] [18] The victim was pronounced dead at the scene. The accident had caused the service of the line to be disrupted to allow police to remove the body from the location. [19]
In October 2018, the lift of the station broke down [lower-alpha 1] and caused disabled commuters to be stranded at the station as there is no alternative route for them. [20] [21] Prasarana later apologized and the lift was repaired by the next day. [22]
Park-and-ride facilities are provided in the station with 120 parking bays built next to the station. [23] A convenience store, operated by 7-Eleven as well as a cafe, can be found in the station.
