GELANG PATAH: Work on the Johor Baru-Singapore Transit Link System project is expected to start this November, said Johor Menteri Besar Hasni Mohammad.

He said Malaysia and Singapore will be signing the agreement on the project, linking Bukit Chagar in Johor Baru with Singapore's Woodlands North station on the Thomson-East Coast MRT line, at the end of the month. "The long-awaited project will boost Johor's economy as it will create an economic spillover, especially in Iskandar Malaysia," he told reporters yesterday.

Mr Hasni said the train depot for the maintenance of the train coaches will be built at a site in Wadihana in Johor Baru instead of the initial plan of building it in Mandai, Singapore.Last week, Senior Minister Azmin Ali said Malaysia was confident of meeting Singapore's July 31 deadline for the RTS project.
