The SPE, which was fully opened on Nov 3 last year, features a dual-two carriageway and seven elevated interchanges.

The expressway is divided into four main sections, namely Kerinchi–Salak (Section 1), Salak–Pandan (Section 2), Pandan–Setiawangsa (Section 3) and Setiawangsa–Taman Melati (Section 4), spanning a total distance of 20.7km.

It connects several other highways, including the Sprint Highway, Ampang-Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway (Akleh), Duta-Ulu Kelang Expressway (DUKE) and the Kuala Lumpur Middle Ring Road 2 (MRR2), to enhance network efficiency and reduce congestion in Kuala Lumpur.
