The two lanes on the viaduct leading into Woodlands Checkpoint have been demarcated with continuous double white lines between them, the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority said on Tuesday.

This was done as ICA had observed that drivers would use the motorcycle lane to jump ahead of the queue of cars along the viaduct waiting to enter the checkpoint for immigration clearance. This added to the congestion at the checkpoint and increased travel time for travellers.In a Facebook post, ICA said enforcement cameras have been installed along the viaduct to identify cars that violate traffic rules by crossing the double white lines.
