Mother of ALL JAMs in at Checkpoint

[Count_duku]

Today reached the jam at 2nd link at 2pm, starting from before the TnG booths. Took about 1.5 hours to clear the TnG queue and another 1.5 hours to clear MY customs. Singapore side totally smooth . Should be much worse now at 6pm, jam tailback should be at RnR there . The new transport minister should consider moving the TnG away from the customs (really dumb location). And put some proper lanes, hire some RELA people to help with the traffic during festive season.

This is crazy, 11am from KL jam until 8.45pm still not yet reach sg! How these people survive during this crazy jam? No need to go toilet and eat?

I am puzzled by the KL to JB NSHW jam. I thought the jam today should be JB to KL as everyone is returning to work tomorrow.

kl to jb are as many as jb to kl ... it's 2-way traffic during every festival ....

i also suspect many stay in jb work in spore 

ie bike to spore, car + house in jb, travel north for cny = back to hometown or in-law place

what goes up must come down .... hehe

Looks like many more from KL and beyond are now working in SG, with some staying in JB, like you said. Mostly Chinese, I presume. The last Haji long weekend, traffic wasn’t as bad (KL to SG/JB).

That's why they scrapped HSR.

Making it harder to work in SG.

Maybe use the old trunk roads might be faster?
