Malaysia Rapid Transit Corporation (MRT Corp) and IJM Land Berhad have unveiled a new transit oriented development with a Gross Development Value of RM600 million that links directly to the Cochrane MRT station.
THE LINQUE, is developed through a strategic partnership between MRT Corp and IJM Land comprising approximately 586 serviced apartment units integrated with retail offerings and direct covered connectivity to Cochrane MRT Station.
“The success of our rail network cannot be measured solely by the number of trains we operate or the number of passengers we carry. The true measure of success is the value that is created around the network. Every MRT station should become more than a transport node. It should become an engine for investment, jobs, economic activity and vibrant communities,” said Anthony Loke the Transport Minister.
The Minister noted that transit-oriented development has become an increasingly important component of Malaysia’s public transport strategy, helping to create integrated communities where people can live, work, shop and travel with greater convenience while reducing dependence on private vehicles.
IJM’s Datuk Tony Ling described THE LINQUE as an important milestone for IJM Land and the company’s first collaboration with MRT Corp. “With this development, IJM Land and MRT Corp came together with a shared aspiration to create more than just another residential development. We wanted to deliver a transit-oriented development that brings together accessibility, convenience and lifestyle within a highly connected urban environment directly linked to the MRT network,” he said.
