Public transportation

[edit]

Public transportation connections from Bandar Saujana Putra are limited.

Previously there was a bus route T760, operated by Nadi Putra, connecting Bandar Saujana Putra to Putra Heights LRT station. The route was cancelled during COVID-19 pandemic lockdown in spring 2020.

Since December 2020 there is a tour bus operator serving the Bandar Saujana Putra - Putra Heights route only on weekdays. However, shortly after an announcement in the media, the service was also cancelled. There is also no plan in sight to ease the lack of bus connection to MRT and LRT which are on time, trackable and frequent enough to service an entire township which are now, completely dependent on their own personal vehicles.
