JOHOR BARU: Discussions between the federal and state governments to look into the public transport facilities beyond the Johor Baru-Singapore Rapid Transit System Link (RTS Link) need to be held to ensure smoother traffic flow here in the future, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

As the project was set for completion by the end of 2026 and operations expected to commence on Jan 1 the following year, there is a need to further disperse traffic coming and going via the railway shuttle link, said the Transport Minister.
