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

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
