History

Lebuhraya Shapadu Sdn Bhd (LSSB) (a member of the Shapadu Corporation Sdn Bhd) was awarded the highway concession by the government on 1 August 1995 to construct, maintain and operate the NNKSB. The total project including land acquisition cost an estimated RM 536 million. The expressway, with a paid-up capital of RM 20 million, is a 17.5 km (10.9 mi) two-lane dual carriageway, linking Port Klang to Klang town. Once completed, it will be a catalyst to the surrounding infrastructural development and development of Port Klang. This highway is equipped with a Traffic Surveillance System (TSS) and a Rest and Service Area in Kapar.

On 2014, the expressway was taken over to Grand Saga, a subsidiary of LGB Group which changes its name to Grand Sepadu Sdn Bhd.
