Taman Mutiara MRT station

The Taman Mutiara MRT station is an elevated mass rapid transit station in Cheras in south-eastern Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It is located above the Cheras Highway (also known as Jalan Cheras and part of Malaysia Federal Route 1), next to the Cheras Leisure Mall and EkoCheras Mall. The station was given the working name Leisure Mall station during construction.

The station serves the neighbouring residential areas such as Taman Cheras Makmur (Taman Yulek), Taman Desa Aman, Taman Mutiara Barat, Taman Mutiara Timur, Taman Segar, Taman Taynton View and Taman Bukit Hijau.

The station is on the MRT Kajang Line and was opened on 17 July 2017, along with 19 stations under Phase 2 operations of the line.

The station has a layout and design similar to that of most other elevated stations on the line (except the termini), with the platform level on the topmost floor, consisting of two sheltered side platforms along a double tracked line and a single concourse housing ticketing facilities between the ground level and the platform level. Lifts, stairways and escalators link all levels.

The station has three entrances (exclusive of linkways). The feeder buses operate from the station's feeder bus hub via Entrance B within the station area. There are linkways which provide access to the Cheras Leisure Mall and EkoCheras Mall on either side of the Cheras Highway. Entrances B and C are located on the Leisure Mall side.

With the opening of the MRT Kajang Line, feeder buses also began operating, linking the station with several housing and commercial areas around Cheras Hartamas, Taman Segar, Persiaran Awana, Persiaran Lemak, Kampung Cheras Baru and the Jalan Kuari area. The feeder buses operate from the station's feeder bus hub at Entrance B of the station.

The MRT station is also served by other bus services.

A woman was attacked and robbed by a man wearing a black t-shirt and jeans in one of the lifts at the station, and the 56-second video of the incident, caught by CCTV at the station, went viral on social media.
