Hi Bobby,

The carparks themselves aren't causing any traffic problems, the major problem is that the main road to the airport comes off a roundabout that interchanges with the Gateway Motorway that is the major route from south to north through Brisbane (and it basically bypasses the city for any vehicles on Highway 1) - The roundabout has been there for yonks and was always a trouble spot, but they installed traffic lights there last year (on the roundabout) and its made the traffic even worse, most peak hours there is a delay of about 45 minutes to an hour to get tp the airport.

They are taking steps to fix it, like new entry points into the airport from the north and south directions on the gateway to take the pressure off the roundabout, but I think its still atleast a year off. We can only wait and see I guess!
