Motorbike tolls at Second Link to be scrapped
02 Jan 2019|2,586 views
Motorcyclists will no longer have to pay tolls when travelling on the Second Link from 21 January, Singapore's Ministry of Transport (MOT) said yesterday. The abolition of the $0.40 motorcycle fee when entering or leaving Tuas Checkpoint follows Malaysia's move to stop collecting the RM1.10 ($0.36) toll from its side of the Second Link.
"Singapore's longstanding policy is to match Malaysia's toll rates," said an MOT spokesman. Malaysia announced that it would remove tolls for motorcyclists on the Second Link last November and Singapore announced its intention to follow suit days later.
Tolls have been collected from motorcyclists at the Second Link since 1998, when the $1.3 billion bridge to Johor was opened. Back then, motorcyclists had to pay RM1 (equivalent to $0.44 then) on the Malaysian side, and another $0.50 at the Tuas checkpoint.
