The MRT3 or MRT Circle Line will be the thirteenth rail transit line, the fifth fully automated and driverless rail system in Klang Valley area. It is part of the larger rail transport system in Kuala Lumpur and was given a name by Land Public Transport Commission of Malaysia (SPAD) as Greater KL/Klang Valley Integrated Transit System. The line is expected to be numbered 13 and coloured grey on transit map.

It is one of three planned rail lines under Klang Valley Mass Rapid Transit Project by MRT Corp. The line is currently under final planning and evaluation. Announcement of alignment and station locations was expected during the second quarter of 2011. The MRT Circle Line is expected to cover the hotspots surrounding the Bandar Malaysia, KL Ecocity, Bukit Kiara and Sentul. Interest in building the line resurfaced in early 2015.
