Both parts of the Federal Road 2 are Jalan Klang Kuala Lumpur - FT2 and Jalan Kuala Lumpur - Kuantan FT2 can only be connected directly after completion of the Kuala Lumpur-Petaling Jaya Traffic Dispersal Scheme which is also connection for the MRR1 in 1983. The original name for Lebuhraya Mahameru (now Lebuhraya Sultan Iskandar) was Swettenham Parkway before it was renamed as Lebuhraya Mahameru. The overall KL MRR1 was only completed in 1995 after the completion of the Jalan Istana interchange.[1]
