SINGAPORE: An accident involving a bus at Tuas Checkpoint on Tuesday (Feb 26), caused the heavy vehicle lane heading towards Singapore to become blocked, said the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA).
In a Facebook post at 5.20am, ICA said that police and Singapore Civil Defence Force personnel (SCDF) were at the scene.

It added that buses and lorries were unable to enter the checkpoint at arrival, and advised motorists to use Woodlands Checkpoint instead.
Photos posted on Facebook showed barricades blocking the heavy vehicle lane at about 5.12am.

In another Facebook update almost an hour later, ICA said traffic for arriving and departing cars and motorcycles was back to normal. However, the heavy vehicle lane remained closed.
