Book Description
"Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport and Port Botany are two of Australia's most important international gateways. However, the roads around them are becoming increasingly congested due to rising numbers of passengers and freight vehicles. To remove an operational slow point for freight trains servicing Port Botany, improve traffic flow and access to the airport, Port Botany and, in the future, the WestConnex Motorway, NSW Roads and Maritime Services (Roads and Maritime) is planning to upgrade roads east of the airport and remove the General Holmes Drive rail level crossing. In November 2013, Roads and Maritime prepared a Proposal Report that documented why the road upgrade project is required, the strategic project options that were considered, the advantages and disadvantages of each option and the preferred option (Roads and Maritime, 2013). Since then, Roads and Maritime has considered community and stakeholder feedback, and investigated and refined the key features of the preferred option. This process, and the proposal as it now stands, are documented in this report."--Introduction.
