Heavy traffic expected at Singapore checkpoints next week

Motorists can expect heavy traffic heading at the Woodlands and Tuas checkpoints ahead of the Hari Raya Aidilfitri holidays next week. 

Bernama quotes a statement by Singapore’s Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) as saying that traffic would likely be particularly heavy on July 5 and 6.

“Security at our checkpoints remains ICA’s top priority against any potential threats to Singapore,” the statement said.

“With security checks, traffic build-up is inevitable, especially when a large number of travellers use the checkpoints at the same time.”

The ICA advised motorists to plan their travels in order to avoid a survey of vehicles at the checkpoints.
