A massive traffic jam on the Johor Causeway has left travellers facing delays of up to three hours. The congestion, stretching from the Woodlands Checkpoint in Singapore to the Bangunan Sultan Iskandar (BSI) complex in Johor Baru, is impacting both inbound and outbound traffic.
Travel lers heading to Singapore are reportedly facing significant delays on the Johor Causeway , with traffic backlogged from the Woodlands Checkpoint in Singapore to the Bangunan Sultan Iskandar Customs, Immigration, and Quarantine (BSI) complex in Johor Baru. At the time of writing, ‘live’ traffic cameras showed vehicles at a standstill along the Causeway, while entry into Johor Baru remained clear.
An overwhelming number of vehicles arriving from Woodlands was straining capacity despite all vehicle counters being operational at the BSI. “We hope the public can stagger their journeys as the wait can take up to two to three hours to reach Singapore,” an official was quoted as saying, adding that the bottleneck was also impacting vehicles entering the BSI from Johor. Meanwhile, traffic police were deployed to manage congestion in Johor Baru’s city centre, while bus passengers struggled to proceed after clearing Malaysian immigration due to buses being stuck in traffic. A traveller, only known as Tan, highlighted operational challenges on the Singapore side, suggesting not all immigration counters were open. “The Malaysian side seemed smooth, but there appears to be an issue in Singapore. I hope they plan better, especially with New Year just around the corner,” she was quoted as saying.
