SINGAPORE: Currently, 200 cross-border taxis in Singapore and 200 in Malaysia are allowed to pick up and drop off passengers at just two places - Ban San Street near Bugis, and Pasar Bakti terminal in Johor.

From July, taxis plying both sides of the Singapore-Malaysia border will be able to pick up and drop off passengers anywhere in their domestic countries.

The Joint Ministerial Committee also agreed to boost connectivity by further increasing the quota for cross border bus services.

A joint engineering study for the Rapid Transit System (RTS) link between Iskandar Malaysia and Singapore was also approved.

The project is targeted to be launched in May 2011.
