Traffic Upsurge To Be Expected During F1

The Formula One Grand Prix in Singapore is just around the corner, starting from Sept 26, 2008. In view of this, the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) of Singapore is expecting a surge of traffic, both ways at land checkpoints during this time.

There will be enhanced security checks by the ICA and a traffic build up is expected. With this, the ICA is advising the public to adjust their travel plans and avoid land travels to Malaysia. The Singaporeans who have valid passports and registered with National Registration Office are adviced to use the Enhanced Immigration Automated Clearance System lanes (eIACS) to encourange efficiency for clearance. Travellers are also advised to double check their passports and to avoid cases of handling of wrong passports as it had also happened before.
