The Johor Bahru metropolitan area is covered and well served by a wide variety and efficient infrastructures and many of them are currently under various stages of planning and developments and frequently being upgraded and maintained, despite the current economic crises that hit many East Asian countries.

The corridor is currently served by two airports in the 50 kilometres radius.  They are the Sultan Ismail International Airport (commonly known locally as Senai Airport) in Johor Bahru and the Changi International Airport in Singapore.  The Sultan Ismail International Airport, which is located about 30 kilometres to the north-west of Johor Bahru City, is currently being expanded and upgraded to become the regional airport for southern peninsular Malaysia and the logistic and air-cargo centre for the proposed Teknopolis region, a high-technology academic and manufacturing region spanning across the district of Johor Bahru.

Also in the metropolitan area is Malaysia's third largest port, the Johor Port, located in Pasir Gudang to the east of Johor Bahru City.  This sea port is also reputed to be in the same league with some of the world's notable ports like those in Amsterdam, Bilbao in Spain, Bremen in Germany, Manila and Dunkirk in France. 

Additionally, the Klang Port in Selangor and various ports in Singapore also serve the corridor. Two new seaports are currently being constructed at Tanjung Pelepas, located 40 kilometres west of Johor Bahru City and Tanjung Langsat, located 10 kilometres east of the Johor Port.   The Tanjung Pelepas Port is reputed to be the biggest port being constructed in South-East Asia and it's phase 1 of development will be operational by the year 1999.

Beside the industrial sea ports, there is also a passenger terminal named Johor Bahru International Ferry Terminal (JBIFT).  This ferry terminal is part of the Johor Bahru Duty Free Complex.  It has direct express ferry links to Indonesia's Batam and Bintan islands, Singapore's Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal and various tourist destination within the State of Johor.

On land transport, the metropolitan region is accessible from other parts of peninsular Malaysia through the 900 kilometres North-South Expressway (NSE), various trunk roads and highways and the national railway network.  The metropolitan region is also accessible from Singapore through the 1.056 kilometres Johor-Singapore Causeway, which was build by the British colonial government back in the 1920s and the new 2 kilometres long Second Crossing to the west of Johor Bahru City.

Currently, there are a few new expressways under various stages of planning and development to form a better road network within the metropolitan area.   Among them are the proposed Johor Bahru Outer-Ring Road, which will run from the East-coast to the West-coast of the metropolitan, Johor South-Eastern Foreshore Expressway, Pasir Gudang Highway extension, Tanjung Pelepas Seaport Expressway, West Coast Expressway, East Coast Expressway, Gemas-Pasir Gudang Highway and the Johor Bahru Outer-Ring Road II.

The most recently opened expressway network in the metropolitan area is the Second Crosslink to Singapore, North-South Expressway to Second Crosslink Extension and the Johor Bahru Parkway, which links Johor Bahru City to the above NSE Extension.  This network of toll expressways commenced operation during January 1998.

Currently, the major highways that are under construction or upgrading are the Tebrau Highway, Skudai Highway and the Johor Bahru Inner Ring Road.

Electricity is provided by Tenaga Nasional Berhad, the national electricity provider operated by the private-sector.  Treated portable water is provided by Syarikat Air Johor Berhad, a semi-government enterprise.   As for telecommunication, there are currently four fixed-line operators, three public telephone operators, six mobile-phone operators, two Internet Service Providers (ISP) and various operators for paging services. Two companies are providing sewerage-treating services in the corridor.

Garbage collection service in most part of Johor Bahru district is currently coordinated and provided by Southern Waste Management (Johor) Sdn. Bhd.  In other parts of the State of Johor, it's either provided by the related local authority or contracted to garbage collection companies.

On the Information Technology sector, the state government has initiated the Johor Information Infrastructure (JII) project. This project will not only upgrade the physical telecommunication and networking infrastructure in the state, but will also provide networking services for the public in the future.  Under the project, the public will be able to acquire government and commercial services and information on a broadband multimedia network.  JII is already operational within the state government's various departments and has made the State Government the first paperless government in Malaysia.
