The Causeway
Entering Johor Bahru from Singapore involves travelling
across the Causeway which links the two cities. Completed in 1924
after four years' work, the Causeway is 1,056 metres long and
extends to a depth of 23 metres below the water level. In January
1942, the British Army demolished part of its as invading Japanese
forces prepare to attack Singapore from the north.
The Japanese
soon effected repairs and the Causeway resumed its role as an
important road, railway and general communications link. The crossing
includes a pedestrian walkway for the energetic. Singapore gets
a good deal of water supply from large water pipes which have
been laid across the Causeway from Johor.
