The Causeway
"
Entering Johor Bahru from Singapore involves travelling across the Causeway which links the two cities. It was completed in 1924."
The Causeway links Malaysia and Singapore across the Johor Straits. It was completed in 1924 after construction works that took four years. During World War II, in 1942, part of the causeway was deliberately destroyed by the British Armed Forces in hopes of halting the advancement of the Japanese army which was heading south towards Singapore. But the Japanese army quickly restored the causeway and made its way into Singapore nevertheless.
Today, the causeway resumes its role as a major link for road and rail transport into Singapore, as well as providing a path for communication links and water supply between the two cities. The Causeway is 1,056 metres long and extends to a depth of 23 metres below the water level.
