Putrajaya Street Circuit is a street circuit which was first used on 22 November 2014 during the second ePrix of Formula E. The start-and-finish straight runs on one of the major highways – Persiaran Perdana, or Putrajaya Boulevard – and just north of the circuit is the Perdana Putra housing the Prime Minister's Office.
