KULAI: All contra lanes at the two land checkpoints in Johor will be activated in anticipation of the high volume of vehicles from Singapore during Christmas and New Year.

State works, transportation and infrastructure committee chairman Mohamad Fazli Mohamad Salleh said it is hoped that the activation of the contra lanes at both Bangunan Sultan Iskandar (BSI) and Sultan Abu Bakar Complex (KSAB) will help mitigate the situation.
