Sri Rampai LRT station

Sri Rampai LRT station is a light rapid transit (LRT) station in northern Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, forming part of the LRT Kelana Jaya Line. The station, named after the nearby Taman Sri Rampai housing estate to the west, is located along the border between Taman Sri Rampai and Wangsa Maju to the east.

History
s and an unfinished interior. While construction of the station started along with the rest of the line in 1996, it was halted in 1997 due to low population in the surrounding area and the cancellation of a housing project nearby. While the rest of the line opened in 1999 with Sri Rampai station listed on transit maps, it was effectively a ghost station with all trains programmed to simply pass through. On the evening of 25 August 2006, the station's tracks were inundated by water from a flash flood, disrupting services along the entire Kelana Jaya Line for several hours and causing major passenger congestion between the and the stations. Services were gradually restored by 8:30 pm (MST). Refurbishment of the station resumed in September 2008, likely in response to new property developments in the area, including Wangsa Walk Mall and a local AEON Big (formerly known as "Carrefour") supermarket. Works on the station were completed in early December 2010, and the station began revenue service on 24 December 2010. ==Design==
Design
The station is a two-level subsurface station, with the platform areas (containing two side platforms) constructed below the surface, while the rest of the structure is located above on the ground level. The station is the only one along the line to be at-grade, in comparison to other stations' elevated and underground designs. The station's layout is similar to that of on the MRT Putrajaya Line and on the LRT Ampang and Sri Petaling Lines. ==Places of interest==
