Airport road works

Recommended Posts

Travelling back and forth the airport once every 2 weeks for the last 2 half years made me search online for the project and I found this. Link below

This is in time what all the up upheaval will look like when finished.

You would have loved it last night Elfie.... not! I did my usual pick up of son at the domestic terminal near midnight and it was a flippin nightmare! The whole area was illuminated like daytime and with more flashing lights than Blackpool on a public holiday; hundreds of machines and men working away; Horrie Miller Drive was reduced to one lane instead of two each way, with a stop/go board to control the traffic!! The 10 min drive from home to domestic terminal at midnight became a 45 minute marathon! The website is interesting though and like you, I travel this on a bi-weekly basis and can actually see what is going on at last. Thanks Elfie... Rossy.

I drove to the international terminal on Saturday it was a breeze. Today I have to go the FIFO terminals just past the domestic turn off. I know its going to be a nightmare as pick up time is 6.20 pm so I have to leave SH by 4.40 as its going home time its bad then but on way back you sail through x

Elfie it seems they are doing all the major work overnight to save disruption during the day so you should be OK. Amazing how quickly they are coming along with it now though eh? I am back at the International terminal Saturday when my friends fly back to Blighty... then on Monday night for son to go back to Queensland for work... so will see what else has happened then. Good Luck tonight!! x
