Sydney Airport stated (15-May-2017) its five year ground access improvement programme is due to complete one year ahead of schedule in late 2017. The programme aims to enhance travel experience to and from the airport by improving public transport options, access roads and pick up/drop off facilities. Remaining projects due for completion by the end of 2017 include:
- Elevated shared cycle/pedestrian path from the Alexandra Canal cycleway to provide access over roads and car parks into P7 at T1;
- New dedicated exit road for Departures Road/Arrivals Court to Airport Drive at T1 to streamline traffic movement;
- New flyover from Airport Drive into the T1 precinct to eliminate traffic weaving;
- Additional lane on Qantas Drive at T2/T3 to provide more capacity for traffic exiting the precinct. [more - original PR]
