The Johor Bahru–Singapore Rapid Transit System (RTS Link) is a planned rapid transit system that would connect Singapore and Johor Bahru, Malaysia, crossing the Straits of Johor. The line is also referred to as the "Singapore-Johor Bahru Rapid Transit System", "Malaysia-Singapore Rapid Transit System", etc. If built, it would be the second rail link between the two countries, after KTM Intercity's North-South line, and the first designed for high-volume local transit. The first part of a preliminary engineering study was completed in March 2014,^[1] with completion targeted for 2019.

Currently envisioned as a two-station line, the Singapore end would be located near Republic Polytechnic, with interchange to Woodlands North MRT Station on the upcoming Thomson-East Coast MRT Line, and the Malaysian end would be at Bukit Chagar, with interchange to Keretapi Tanah Melayu Intercity services at JB Sentral and the planned JB Metro.^[2] Both stations are planned to have colocated Singaporean and Malaysian customs, immigration and quarantine facilities.^[3] Bridge and tunnel options are being considered for the link across the Johor Straits.^[2] The option will be decided upon during the next leaders' retreat to be held between the prime ministers of the 2 countries in 2016.^[4]
