SG-MY land checkpoints record over 2.33 million crossing during CNY weekend 

During the holidays, land checkpoints saw an average of 390,000 daily travellers.

The Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) recorded more than 2.33m crossings at the Woodlands and Tuas checkpoints during the Lunar New Year weekend, from 8 February to 13 February.

The land checkpoints catered to an average of 390,000 travellers daily, up by 35% from 2023’s record of 289,000.

As Singapore will have an upcoming March school holiday, ICA warned of “very heavy traffic” at Woodlands and Tuas checkpoints.

The ICA advised travellers to consider additional waiting time during this period and encouraged motorists to check the traffic situation before their journey and to avoid queue cutting.

The agency also advised drivers of foreign vehicles to ensure the validity of their Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) since applications at checkpoints are not allowed.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
