History
The station was built as an infill station, which opened in July 2006.[1] KTM Intercity services were extended to this station in 2008 when it was included in the KL Sentral–Ipoh shuttle, which was discontinued when KTM ETS began operations in August 2010.
Kepong Sentral station was built to cater to the traffic in Kepong, a suburban area northwest of Kuala Lumpur. The older Kepong, which also serves the same locality is located 1 km away.
Connection with MRT station
This station serves as a connecting station with the MRT Putrajaya Line at Sri Damansara Timur via a link bridge. The MRT station was opened on 16 June 2022, and is one of two interchanges between the Tanjung Malim-Port Klang Line and the MRT Putrajaya Line, the other being Sungai Buloh. Previously, the MRT station was named Kepong Sentral as well, but was subsequently named Sri Damansara Timur during launch.
