Malaysia/Singapore: Johor-Singapore Causeway sees increased congestion
Officials warn of increased congestion, security on Johor-Singapore Causeway due to end-of-year holiday season travel
Event
On Wednesday, December 19, the Singapore Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) warned of increased congestion due to heightened security measures at the Tuas and Woodlands Checkpoints on the Johor-Singapore Causeway. Authorities attribute the increased traffic to end-of-year holiday travel and a bomb hoax. A heightened security presence and increased wait times can be expected over the coming weeks.
Advice
Individuals using the Johor-Singapore Causeway are advised to allow for extra time to reach their destinations.
