Heading to Malaysia over the long weekend? Expect heavy traffic

There’s no reason to indulge in the Monday blues, ’cause this week’s a short one. But if you’re planning to head across the border over the Good Friday long weekend, be prepared to get in line. 

Unsurprisingly, the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority has announced that heavy traffic is to be expected at both the Woodlands and Tuas Checkpoints departing Singapore on Mar 24 and 25, and returning on Mar 27.

Some suggestions given by ICA to ensure a smoother journey include car-pooling with friends, refraining from cutting the queue of an already-annoyed driver, and making sure your car doesn’t contain any prohibited goods.

Alternatively, you can make use of this new app to check traffic conditions at the Causeway and Second Link before you set out.
