Taman Pertama MRT station is a mass rapid transit (MRT) station on the MRT Kajang Line in Cheras, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It is located along Federal Route 1 Jalan Cheras, which is just right next to where it branches to Jalan Loke Yew, Jalan Yaacob Latif and Jalan Cheras. It was opened on 17 July 2017, along with 18 adjoining stations as part of Phase Two of the MRT SBK line.
The MRT Taman Pertama station was provisionally known as Taman Bukit Ria during construction. This is the first elevated station (towards Kajang) after exiting the underground section at Maluri.
The station serves the nearby suburbs of Taman Pertama, Taman Bukit Ria, several DBKL public housing complexes and parts of Bandar Tun Razak. The station is also near the former site of the now-defunct Cheras Velodrome.[1]
