Bukit Nanas station is a Malaysian elevated monorail train station in Kuala Lumpur that forms part of the Kuala Lumpur Monorail (KL Monorail) line. It opened for train service on 31 August 2003. This station was formerly called P. Ramlee station after the nearby Jalan P. Ramlee.
Location
The station is located at the western tip of Ampang Hilir, constructed near and named after Bukit Nanas, where the Kuala Lumpur Tower, a water treatment plant and a forest reserve are situated. The station is located above Jalan Sultan Ismail, directly south from the Jalan Sultan Ismail-Jalan Ampang intersection.
Due to its location, the station is typically busy during rush hours as well as public holidays, weekends and school holidays when patrons use the monorail to reach the Kuala Lumpur Tower. The station is also situated close to several commercial establishments down the roads.
Connecting station The Bukit Nanas Monorail station is located 300m from the LRT Kelana Jaya Line's station via foot along Jalan Ampang; both stations are designated as connecting stations in official transit maps. Covered walkways were erected along Jalan Ampang to and from each station to facilitate commuters transferring between the two lines.
As they are not interchange stations (there is no integration between their respective paid areas), commuters will be charged two single-way journey fares when exiting one station and entering the other.
