The Johor Bahru-Singapore Rapid Transit System (RTS) Link project has successfully conducted a high-speed, multi-train trial last Friday, RTS Operations has stated.
“We successfully and safely ran multiple trains together at higher speeds while validating key systems such as regenerative braking, all under strict safety protocols. It’s part of a broader testing journey, with more phases ahead as we continue strengthening system safety and performance towards system readiness,” RTS Operations stated.
In February, a report citing Sin Chew Daily reported that fares for the Johor Bahru-Singapore RTS Link are expected to be announced in the second half of this year, and could be in the region of S$5-7 (RM15.37-RM21.53) per trip.
As of January, the RTS Link project was reported to be on track for completion in December, for operations to commence in January 2027. The four-km long rail link connects JB’s Bukit Chagar to Singapore’s Woodlands North, and its driverless train sets have a maximum capacity of 10,000 passengers per hour per way.
The Johor Bahru-Singapore RTS Link will eventually replace the Keretapi Tanah Melayu (KTM) Shuttle Tebrau service, although Malaysian transport minister Anthony Loke has said that Malaysia hopes the service can be maintained temporarily.
