SINGAPORE – Those travelling to Malaysia on June 21 can expect to wait more than three hours to clear immigration at Woodlands Checkpoint, said the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA).
In a Facebook post at around 8.15am, ICA said that there is “very heavy departure traffic” at the checkpoint due to tailback from Malaysia, with traffic congestion extending beyond exit 10A of the BKE.
With the June school holidays coming to a close on June 29, traffic is expected to be heavy at both land checkpoints, especially on the weekends.
Earlier this month, ICA reminded motorists to observe proper road etiquette, warning that those caught jumping queues by its officers at the Woodlands and Tuas checkpoints will have to make a U-turn and rejoin the queue. They could also be blacklisted and face further disciplinary action from the authorities.
