According to tender documents seen by The Straits Times, Singapore’s Ministry of Transport (MOT) is looking to procure a tracking system that can track a maximum of 2,000 vehicles at any one point in time.
The system will be used to track people driving into Singapore through its checkpoints as they go to the parking facility at the former Bukit Batok Heavy Vehicle Carpark next to the Pan-Island Expressway, near Bukit Batok Flyover.
In response to queries, an MOT spokesman said the tender is for the set-up of a designated parking facility to facilitate the process for travellers entering Singapore from Malaysia in their own vehicles before they proceed to serve their stay-home notice (SHN).
“Currently, travellers are allowed to park at their places of accommodation or workplace before proceeding to serve their SHN,” the spokesman said.
