The Malaysia-Singapore Second Link is a bridge linking the two countries. It connects Tanjung Kupang in Johor with Tuas in Singapore, and is often referred to simply as The Second Link in Malaysia, or the Tuas Second Link in Singapore. It is the second crossing between the two countries after the Johor-Singapore Causeway.

The Second Link was completed on 2 January, 1998. It helps to reduce congeston on the already overburdened Causeway. The link comprises a 1.92 km bridge over the straits. It has three lanes on each side. The bridge spans from Kampung Ladang at Tanjung Kupang in Johor, Malaysia, to Jalan Ahmad Ibrahim at Tuas, Singapore.

On the Malaysia side of the Second Link is the Tanjung Kupang Toll Plaza. It was built inland on Tanjung Kupang. Onwards from here is the Second Link Expressway (E3), which links to the North-South Expressway (Southern Route) (E2) at Exit 253, Senai North Interchange.

On the Singapore side of the Second Link is the Tuas Checkpoint. It was built on a 19.6 hectare piece of reclaimed land. Onwards from there is the Ayer Rajah Expressway (AYE) which runs eastward towards the city centre, eventually connecting with the East Coast Parkway (ECP).

The toll for passenger cars using the Second Link is RM10.80 at Tanjung Kupang Toll Plaza and S$4.60 at the Tuas Checkpoint.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
