The station is marked as Station No. 16 along the RM9 billion line project with the line's maintenance depot located in Johan Setia, Klang.[2] The Bukit Raja Selatan LRT station was expected to be operational in February 2024, but Transport Minister Anthony Loke mentioned that the overall line would be expected to be operational by 1st March 2025 adding more delays to the opening of the Shah Alam Line.[3] It will have facilities such as public parking, kiosks, restrooms, elevators, taxi stand and feeder bus among others.[4]

The station was under provisional status due to budgetary cuts made during the change of the Malaysian government in 2018.[5] However, on 13 October 2023, during the Budget 2024 presentation, Finance Minister Dato' Seri Anwar Ibrahim announced the reintegration of the five stations that were previously under provisional status including the Bukit Raja Selatan LRT station to be built alongside the rest of the Shah Alam Line.[6]
