Singapore and Malaysia have agreed to reopen a causeway linking the two countries from Monday, allowing cross-border land travel for the first time since March last year.

Vaccinated passengers will be allowed on designated buses between Singapore and Johor Bahru, the southernmost city on the Malaysian Peninsula, the two governments said in statements Wednesday.
