Travellers coming in from Johor on Aug. 29 might be stuck on the land crossing for a bit if they are entering via Tuas Checkpoint.

According to a Facebook update by the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority, heavy traffic on both arrival and departure sides of Tuas Checkpoint is due to an intermittent slowness of the immigration clearance system.

Here's ICA's full statement which was posted at 7:45am:

Heavy arrival and departure traffic at Tuas checkpoint due to intermittent slowness of our immigration clearance system. Delays are expected. The Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) regrets the inconvenience caused to travellers and seeks their understanding and patience. Please refer to ICA Facebook page for more official updates.
