Traffic Jams Around Sydney Airport

[Ryan N]

Has anyone noticed the traffic jams near Sydney airport on weekend mornings seem to be getting worse? In particular, Marsh Street from the M5 is bumper to bumper all the way to the international airport. On many occasions, cars are either queue jumping or didn't realise the queue into the international terminal is that long. I'm thinking it's more the former than the latter.

Yes, very noticeable - most of them are just pushing in (taxis I am pointing at you).

The cross over after the bridge between the two directions also doesn't help.

Also, I think family and friends are more likely to go to the airport to pick up or drop off passengers

One of many reasons now I'm happy I left to live in Adelaide

Single lane into the international terminal is terribly inadequate especially with the increase in overseas travel thesedays.

And we hear the people stuck in those traffic jams...

And Sydney does not need another airport

This may ease the congestion around the domestic airport, but what about the international airport?
