Altogether, the 65.0 km of the entire system (Kuala Lumpur Middle Ring Road 2 Scheme) consists of Federal Route 28, Lebuhraya Damansara-Puchong (LDP) (from Sri Damansara Interchange to Sunway Interchange) and Lebuhraya Shah Alam (KESAS) (from Sunway Interchange to Sri Petaling Interchange).

However, the Kuala Lumpur Middle Ring Road 2 is generally referred to as Route 28 since Route 28 occupies about two-thirds of the system.

Overview of Kuala Lumpur Middle Ring Road 2 (MRR2)

Kilometre Zero of the Kuala Lumpur Middle Ring Road 2 is located at Sri Damansara Interchange. At the first kilometre, it is connected to the Federal Route 54 and Lebuhraya Damansara-Puchong (LDP). The Kepong Flyover diverts the MRR2 from the Federal Route 54.
