The Shah Alam Expressway starts at kilometre 18 near Pandamaran Interchange in Klang, Selangor.

Construction

Construction of the expressway began on 1994. Phase 1 (Seafield-Sri Petaling) was completed in 1996 and Phase 2 (Seafield-Pandamaran) was completed in 1998. During the 1998 Commonwealth Games in Kuala Lumpur, the expressway became a gateway to National Sports Complex in Bukit Jalil.
