Land Transport Authority (LTA) has announced that it will open the Tuas Viaduct from 6am on Saturday (18 February) to enhance transport connectivity to businesses in Tuas.
LTA said that the 4.8km long viaduct is the first integrated road – rail viaduct and part of the Tuas West Extension project. The viaduct will provide an alternate route to Tuas South by allowing motorists to by-pass the at-grade Pioneer Road. There will be five ramps (two up-ramps and three down-ramps) along the viaduct.

According to LTA, the completion of the viaduct will support longer term developments within the Tuas area, including the future Tuas Port, as well as other upcoming industrial developments within the Tuas, Tuas South and Pioneer areas.

再有三名马籍巴士司机状告新捷运

再有三名巴士司机,向本地巴士业者新捷运(SBS Transit)另一起诉讼,指责后者在加班和休假日工酬上涉嫌“违反雇佣法令”。 Carson律师楼在脸书证实上述诉讼,并透露上述巴士司机都是马国人,刚在上周向推事庭提呈诉状。他们的申诉也和此前的五名巴士司机一样。 该律师楼律师拉维(M RAVI)将代表他们申诉。 在今年九月底,五名巴士司机分别状告本地巴士业者新捷运,指责后者违反加班工酬条款,支付不足工酬。 原告指责他们被预期在休假日之前,可“连续7日工作无休”,这不符合双方同意的聘任书,故此可能违反《雇佣法》36条,即员工理应每周获得休息日,或者值班超过30小时理应获休假。 他们也控诉,被要求“每周工作超过44小时”,认为这违反《雇佣法》规定的法定工时。 新捷运在10月18日,宣布把上述薪资诉讼,申请从推事庭转移到工业仲裁庭(IAC)审理。诉讼在11月4日开审,诠释新捷运和全国交通工友联合会(NTWU)签署的集体协定中,有关超时工作和休息日的条款,是否符合法律规定。 不过,根据法官书面判决,指新捷运在休息日、超时工作薪酬和工时方面,未违反上述集体协定。 法官是根据新捷运提供的雇佣合同、轮值表和薪酬计算样本作判断,也指休息日条款也未违反雇佣法。 在此前的听证上新捷运指,据雇佣法一些重要服务领域如公共交通,该公司可要求司机工作超过法定工时。…
