Master Plan 2009 - Sydney Airport

Station, public buses, taxi facilities, rental cars,
limousines, valet parking and premium parking.
The transport interchange may provide mid-level
taxi holding facilities and ground level pickup
facilities, improving passenger amenity and
reducing the need for taxis to circulate within
the precinct. Drop-off facilities for taxis would
continue to be provided adjacent to the terminal
buildings using an extended departures kerb.
A new facility for picking-up and dropping-off
passengers is proposed to be created close to the
terminal structures with provision for a system
to aid passenger connections to the terminal
structure, such as a moving walkway. This facility
would remove the need for private vehicles to
circulate within the precinct road network while
waiting for passengers.
During the planning period, surface level car parks
from other areas of Sydney Airport are expected
to be consolidated into the domestic precinct to
maximise the land available for aviation related
uses (see Section 11.4). Additional multi storey
car parking can be provided with provision for
long and short term and staff parking. Total
parking spaces in the sector are likely to grow to
approximately 15,000 spaces.
10.7 logistic precinct access
To facilitate access to the planned Airport
Logistics Precinct north of Airport Drive, a new
landside bridge over Alexandra Canal is proposed.
A secure airside bridge may also be provided to
link the airfield to this precinct.
The existing signalised intersection from Qantas
Drive to the Qantas Jetbase is proposed to be
relocated to the west to provide landside access to
the Airport Logistics Precinct.
10.8 Southern sectors
The Master Plan proposes bridged road
connections across General Holmes Drive to
improve access between the South south-east
sector and South east-sector of the airport to
improve connectivity for on-airport operations.
10.9 disability access
Sydney Airport will ensure that any new
developments comply with the access
requirements under the Disability Discrimination
Act 1992.
