Johor-Singapore Causeway

The Johor–Singapore Causeway is a 1.056-kilometre bridge connecting Johor Bahru in Malaysia to Woodlands in Singapore. Completed in 1923, it serves as a crucial road and rail link between the two countries. Today, it is one of the busiest border crossings globally, with over 350,000 people traversing it daily. While it holds historical significance and facilitates commerce and travel, the causeway often experiences heavy traffic congestion, especially during peak hours. Despite the congestion, the causeway remains an essential connection between Malaysia and Singapore, symbolizing the close ties between the two nations.

Personally, I don't believe it's fair to give it a low rating. It is an extremely busy bridge because of its purpose. It is the principal bridge that connects the two major cities/countries. Many Malaysians work in Singapore, which is expected to be congested during rush hour, as is the case in many other cities across the world. Unless you are willing to pay a premium fee for living in Singapore, you will have to bear with the crowds during rush hours. There is an app that allows you to see the congestion live. I recommend doing so if you want to avoid getting stuck in a jam or crowd. When you require assistance, the staff is courteous and friendly. I would judge them on that for an overall rating.

Walking is very easy, stick to the left side if you are facing malaysia. There is a walking path about halfway, but then after that you have to hug the wall & cross into the car lane past the motorcycles. You need to go to the bus lane to enter Malaysia by foot. Same way back from Malaysia to Singapore. The employees won’t tell you where to go to walk, but if you go to the bus lanes, you will see a turnstile in singapore side and malaysia side you follow the bus lane and walk along the cars. Walking is allowed even though signs say otherwise, the security says you can. Saves you the hassle of buying a bus or train ticket (I bought train tickets in advance but didn’t feel like waiting.) Also if there is traffic it is very safe to walk. Only about 20-30 minutes one way.

This place will get very crowded sometimes and when we were coming back from Malaysia,a car scratched our car but we were lucky as it was only paint transferred onto our car so for those who comes for the 1st time pls be careful🙏

Super bad jam this morning (Sat) even for taking buses. Took 45 mins to clear the bus queue to get onto causeways. Cant wait for mrt to get started.

1.056-kilometre (0.66 mi) causeway consisting of a combined railway and motorway bridge that links the city of Johor Bahru in Malaysia across the Straits of Johor to the district and town of Woodlands in Singapore. It was the only land connection between the two from 1928 until 1998, when the Tuas Second Link opened.

Johor–Singapore Causeway shows how connected Malaysia and Singapore truly are constant flow, strong link.

Road is smooth. It’s jam because people wanna go JB so it can’t be helped that the road going to SG is jammed. When returning to SG: Use the middle lane. Left lane - you’ll get stuck in the divider and it’s slow AF. *Right lane - you’ll get demerit points if you’re a Singaporean car because there’s always traffic police monitoring this lane up ahead. They’re (more than 1 person) standing on the road itself ya. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. *Today, they opened up one lane on the opposite side of the road for the lorries so you can use the right lane today.
