00:14
tunnels with the international and domestic terminals.

The government says the Sydney gateway could save drivers up to 17 minutes in peak hour,
00:25
taking them off local roads through Mascot.
00:27
It will mean no traffic lights from either Penrith or Parramatta, Campbelltown or Liverpool
00:33
coming into the airport.
00:34
The government's estimating up to 100,000 cars will use these roads every day.
00:39
It's hoping the fact that there won't be any additional tolls will encourage drivers to
00:44
test them out.
00:45
I think one of the key lessons we learned from Roselle were people were surprised that
00:50
