Meanwhile, Facebook user Foong Yong was among those who shared a photo of the long queue at BSI complex on social media.
“The queue is very long, whatever bus (company you’re taking) there are no buses. Those who are in a hurry can consider walking across the causeway, but it’s about to rain.
“The causeway isn’t jammed, just that there are no buses.”
Another user Zhi Zhong Ng wrote on Facebook: “To those who are queuing for CW buses, you can walk or apply for leave from work.
“I think the CW bus drivers are on strike today. The causeway isn’t jammed at all.”
Ng added that he did not see a single CW bus at the boarding area at Woodlands Checkpoint.
According to Berita Harian, Johor State Works, Transportation, Infrastructure, and Communication Committee Chairman Mohamad Fazli Mohamad Salleh is expected to hold a meeting with the affected parties to resolve the strike issue.
Several dissatisfied bus drivers also reportedly returned home, while a small number of drivers agreed to resume driving at about 10.30am.
A check on the bus company’s social media pages showed no notice or updates regarding the disrupted bus services to Singapore.
Fazli had on Monday morning posted on Facebook of his visit to the BSI complex but made no mention of the disruption.
In his post, he said that the visit to the immigration complex was to observe bus services between 4am and 6am, adding that he was accompanied by personnel from Singapore’s Land Transport Authority.
CNA has reached out to LTA for comment.
