\n\ud83d\ude86 **Singapore-Johor RTS Link Nears Opening, 600 Personnel Conduct Major Security Exercise At Woodlands Station**<\/p>\n

Singapore’s long-awaited RTS Link connecting Woodlands North to Johor Bahru is getting closer to its scheduled opening in February 2027.<\/p>\n

Ahead of its launch, more than 600 personnel from the Singapore Police Force, ICA, SCDF, LTA, Certis Cisco and SMRT took part in a major security exercise at Woodlands North RTS station from 11 to 12 November.<\/p>\n

The exercise tested how authorities would respond to various emergency situations, including a simulated hostage incident.<\/p>\n

Police K-9 teams also conducted checks on suspicious luggage, while SCDF firefighters responded to a simulated vehicle fire.<\/p>\n

The 4km RTS Link will connect Woodlands North in Singapore to Bukit Chagar in Johor Bahru.<\/p>\n

Once operational, it is expected to carry up to **10,000 passengers per hour in each direction**, with the journey between both stations taking just **5 to 6 minutes**.<\/p>\n

For Singaporeans who frequently travel to JB, this could mean less time stuck in Causeway traffic and a much faster way to cross the border.<\/p>\n

February 2027 can’t come soon enough for frequent JB travellers! \ud83c\uddf8\ud83c\uddec\ud83c\uddf2\ud83c\uddfe
