ICA to extend Woodlands Checkpoint

THE Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) on Thursday said an extension of the Woodlands Checkpoint will be built at the Old Woodlands Town Centre. This is part of its efforts to upgrade the checkpoint to meet growing traffic needs and ensure that immigration clearance remains secure.

Two lots of private land within the town centre will need to be acquired to build the extension. The Singapore Land Authority (SLA) has gazetted the acquisition of the affected land. SLA will work closely with the affected owners and tenants, and assist them throughout the acquisition process, ICA said.
