The first train crossed over it on October 1st, 1923. The length of the causeway is 3,465 ft. There is a lock-170 ft. long and 32 ft. broad, widening inside the gates to 45 ft.-for small craft at the Johore end; otherwise, the causeway cuts off the site of the proposed naval base from sea communication from the West. The distance from Singapore to Calcutta by sea is just over 2,000 miles.
