The MRT Taman Pertama station was provisionally known as Taman Bukit Ria during construction. This is the first elevated station (towards Kajang) after exiting the underground section at Maluri.
The station serves the nearby suburbs of Taman Pertama, Taman Bukit Ria, several DBKL public housing complexes and parts of Bandar Tun Razak. The station is also near the former site of the now-defunct Cheras Velodrome.[1]
