The new charges are to match Malaysia's removal of toll charges at the Eastern Dispersal Link (EDL) from Jan 1.
PETALING JAYA: Singapore’s Land Transport Authority (LTA) has announced revised toll charges for vehicles making return trips between Singapore and Malaysia using the Woodlands checkpoint from Feb 1.
The authority, in a press statement on Friday, said all toll charges for vehicles entering the Republic through the Woodlands checkpoint would be removed, while all vehicles, except motorcycles, leaving Singapore via Woodlands would see reduced charges, saving as much as S$11 (RM33), reported Today Online.
“The new revised toll charges are to match Malaysia’s recent removal of toll charges at the Eastern Dispersal Link (EDL),” the LTA said.
Putrajaya removed toll charges along the EDL on Jan 1, following an announcement by Prime Minister Najib Razak during the unveiling of the 2018 Budget in October last year.
The EDL connects the end of the North–South Expressway to the Malaysian Customs at the Sultan Iskandar Building Complex in Johor Bahru.
Heavy goods vehicles stand to save the most, with a new round-trip toll charge of S$2, instead of the current S$13.
The previous round-trip fee of S$9.80 for vans and light goods vehicles will be reduced to S$1.50, while cars making return trips will save S$5.50, with a revised toll fee at S$1 compared to the current fees of S$6.50.
