The 26km long Maju Expressway (MEX) is an expressway links the Kuala Lumpur city centre with the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) in Sepang, Selangor.
The Maju Expressway (MEX), formerly known as the Kuala Lumpur-Putrajaya Expressway (KLPE), begins from the Kampung Pandan interchange and terminates at the Putrajaya Link Interchange.
The expressway become as a backbone of the Multimedia Super Corridor (MSC) area.
The much anticipated national infrastructure project, the Maju Expressway (MEX) that links Kuala Lumpur to three prominent locations of the country, Putrajaya, Cyberjaya and Kuala Lumpur International Airport, opened its “doors” on schedule to road users on 13 December 2007.
The new Maju Expressway bridges Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya, and connects you to Kuala Lumpur, Putrajaya, Cyberjaya and KLIA within minutes of each other!
In addition, the new Expressway provides shortest direct access to Federal Government Administrative Centre, Multimedia Super Corridor and international airport.
MEX offers road users a shorter and more direct route to destinations once quite a distance away and clogged with traffic.
The expansion of Putrajaya, Cyberjaya, and the KLIA together with this new major expressway will in turn stimulate further commercial and residential developments in the southern corridor of the Klang Valley.
