1st link: Best time to drive from JB-SG and SG-JB?

[RC1985]

Hi everyone,

Tried looking around this forum to find out the answer but couldn't find any recent thread so asked here..For forumers using 1st link Causeway, wats usually the best time to drive out (morning) from JB to SG to avoid the morning jam at CIQ? Does using the EDL help cos it goes straight to CIQ without going thru Tebrau? And vice versa, returning to JB in evening, what's the best time to drive over to avoid the jam into JB direction?

Thnx so much!

Drove in this morning into JB CIQ at 4:40AM and checked out of Woodlands at 5:20AM. Jam formed about 1/4 distance from Woodlands checkpoint. As for evening, any time is a jam time during this time.

Today is just a one-off thing, because I need to transport 6 tables to put in HdB that is being rented out to students. Got it cheap at Tesco for only RM49 each.

HDB and 1/2-bedder near MRT stations are quite resilient. 3/4-bedder condos are the ones that are suffering as expat housing packages are cut and the rate of foreigners coming in is lowered.

Wow! Good deal there. 5 room flat?

I suppose the sweet spot is $2k for HDB and $3k for condos. Any asking rental above $5k will be very challenging.

4 room HDB:p

Students weren't our preferred choice but since we will not be moving back to Singapore we just say "oh well, what the hell, just let it go lah." Just rent out and see how, besides we met the students and they looked very guai kind. So keep fingers crossed. Got my 3K deposit last week, will get another 3K this week. Swee!

4.5k = 9 students. I offer mine. u got lobang? :p
