The Johor Bahru-Singapore Rapid Transit System Link is set to revolutionize cross-border transportation in 2026!

The JB-Singapore RTS Link construction has reached a significant milestone, surpassing the 65% completion mark. This 4-kilometer rail shuttle service connecting Woodlands North station in Singapore to Bukit Chagar in Malaysia is progressing rapidly. Both Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim recently celebrated the completion of a connecting span, highlighting the project's advancement.

The RTS Link, a vital infrastructure project, is scheduled to commence passenger services by the end of 2026. The fares for this cutting-edge transportation system will be determined commercially by the operator, bringing efficient and seamless travel options for commuters. With the completion of the connecting span and significant progress, the RTS Link is poised to enhance connectivity and promote economic growth in the region.

Amidst the excitement, both PM Anwar and PM Lee observed the historic moment as the construction of the RTS Link surged ahead. The completion of the viaduct's connecting span marks a crucial stage in the project's development, indicating the substantial achievements thus far.

In the final stages of the project, the focus shifts towards operational readiness as authorities aim to ensure a smooth and efficient start of the RTS Link in December 2026. This transformative transportation link promises to strengthen ties between Malaysia and Singapore, offering a convenient and modern travel experience for all passengers.
