RTS between Singapore and Johor Bahru (Bukit Chagar) is now under construction. This is the latest video captured by Singapore Discover's Team to show the construction in progress at Woodlands North, Singapore.
RTS rail connections are offered via the adjacent Woodlands North MRT Station, the northern terminus of the Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL). The Woodlands North RTS Station will be constructed underground at a maximum depth of 28 metres. There will be two basement levels and an underground linkway to the new proposed CIQ building.
There would be a 25m-high bridge crossing the Straits of Johor to the Bukit Chagar Station in JB.
This Johor Bahru – Singapore Rapid Transit System (RTS) Link will help ease the Causeway congestion, improve connectivity, foster people-to-people ties and generate shared economic and social benefits.
The RTS Link will serve up to 10,000 commuters during peak periods, for every hour and in each direction.
To facilitate a seamless travelling experience, there will be co-located Customs, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) facilities at both Singapore and JB stations.
Passengers travelling in either direction will clear both Singapore and Malaysia authorities at the point of departure, and need not go through immigration clearance again at the point of arrival.
