09 Mar 2016|1,169 views
Motorcyclists will have an easier time entering and leaving Johor Baru, as Malaysia plans to put in place automated immigration clearance facilities at both the Causeway and Second Link, reported The Straits Times.
It will have 100 'M-Bike' lanes at the Causeway and 50 lanes at the Second Link for the scanning of passports, said a joint statement issued by Malaysia and Singapore.
No timeframe was given for when this will be ready. But the system is similar to that used by Singapore's Immigration and Checkpoints Authority known as Bikes II - where riders at Woodlands and Tuas checkpoints can scan their thumbprints and have passports verified by a machine at 164 counters by the end of this year.
About 35,000 motorcyclists a day use the two crossings, and the measures to improve travel were discussed by officials from both sides when they met in Singapore yesterday for the 12th Malaysia-Singapore Joint Ministerial Committee Meeting for Iskandar Malaysia.
