SINGAPORE - Lanes at the bus concourse of the Woodlands
Checkpoint will be closed from 12.30am to 3am on Thursday (April 6)
for a security exercise.
The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) will be conducting an
operational exercise with the help of the Immigration &
Checkpoints Authority and Singapore Police Force at Woodlands
Checkpoint on Thursday.
"To facilitate the movement and deployment of emergency
vehicles, lanes at the Departure Bus Concourse will be partially
closed during this period," SCDF said in a Facebook post.
All operational vehicles will have their beacon lights switched
on to alert motorists, and signs will warn the public of the
exercise, SCDF said.
"Such exercises are part of the Home Team's on-going efforts to
validate and update operational plans and procedures. The public is
advised not to be alarmed," it said.
