Lower 2nd Link tolls from Aug

Lower Second Link tolls from Aug

From Aug 1, tolls will be reduced by 30 per cent at the Second Link at Tuas, the prime ministers of Singapore and Malaysia announced yesterday.

Singapore's Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Malaysia's Prime Minister Najib Razak met in Putrajaya yesterday, to follow up on bilateral issues discussed at their retreat in Singapore last month.

They had announced then that tolls would be reduced, but that the size of the cut had not been made public at the time.

Currently, tolls at the Second Link can come up to at least $9, more costly than tolls at the Causeway, which amount to about only $2.40. The cut in tolls is among a slew of measures that both countries will take to improve transport links between them.
