The station is an elevated rapid transit station forming part of the Klang Valley Integrated Transit System. Although not designated as an official interchange, commuters may walk up to the Klang Komuter station on the Tanjung Malim–Port Klang Line from the LRT station, taking approximately 5 to 10 minutes.

History & Initial Planning

This is the twentieth station along the RM9 billion line project, with the line's maintenance depot located in Johan Setia, Klang. This LRT station will be expected to be operational in late 2025. [1] It will have facilities such as kiosks, restrooms, elevators, taxi stands, and feeder buses.[2]

The station was initially planned to be built near to and to be an interchange with the current Klang Komuter station at south Klang near to Jalan Tengku Kelana, Little India. The LRT station was initially also called Klang LRT station. However, since the planned location was in a busy district, residents opposed the location mainly for historical importance since it required demolishing parts of pre-war shoplots and some other businesses along the narrow roads.[3] The location of the station was then changed to a new location in north Klang near to Jalan Pasar where the major business district in Klang is located.[4] The new location is next to Klang infamous Emporium Makan, which due to construction difficulties, necessitated the building to be demolished in order for the station to be built.[5] The LRT station at the new location was given the name Pasar Jawa, and no longer designated as an interchange or connection with the Komuter station. The stations however, are within 700 metres walking distance via Jambatan Musaeddin. In April 2026, the station was renamed again to Jambatan Kota.
