Mont Kiara has long been one of Kuala Lumpur’s most sought-after neighbourhoods, but for many, getting in and out of the area has become a daily struggle. What should be a short drive can easily turn into a frustrating crawl during peak hours.
To help ease traffic pressure, upgrades to Mont Kiara’s connectivity are now underway.
Following the successful debut of Bon Kiara in June 2023, boutique property developer Bon Estates Sdn Bhd is taking the next step in enhancing Mont Kiara’s connectivity by constructing a new direct road link between Jalan Duta Kiara and Jalan Kiara 3. The upcoming connection is set to alleviate congestion and provide a direct alternative route in and out of Mont Kiara.
Built into the project’s early plans
According to Chan Jin-Wy, Chief Executive Officer of Bon Estates, the decision to connect the roads was never an afterthought. In fact, from the moment the land was acquired, the link was already mapped into the company’s long-term plan.
Keeping with its tagline “Effortless Living,” the new link enhances connectivity and accessibility, reflecting Bon Estates’ vision of building more accessible and liveable neighbourhoods. Instead of focusing only within the boundaries of its own development, the company takes a more holistic approach, one that extends to improving infrastructure and uplifting the surrounding community.
Saving time, creating convenience
Shim, a longtime Mont Kiara resident, said what should be a simple two-minute drive can easily stretch to 10 minutes during peak hours, and on worse days, even up to 30 minutes.
Ames shared a similar experience, explaining that short trips often turn into long detours as drivers weave through traffic-heavy routes lined with shopping malls, schools and residential areas. Meanwhile, Dan lamented that his navigation app would take him on a huge loop that is just as congested.
Targeted Q2–Q3 completion
Bon Estates estimates the road connection is set to be completed around the second or third quarter of 2026, aligning closely with the handover timeline of its residential project, Bon Kiara.
“The new link road comes with an estimated construction budget of up to RM5 million, due to the scale of work involved and the technical requirements needed for execution. While the investment may seem substantial, Bon Estates views it as a meaningful contribution to the community,” said Chan.
