Western Sydney Airport has marked the completion of the major-construction’s first phase. This exclusive shot reveals the finished product of a new bridge which spans 49 metres- just as wide as Sydney’s widely recognized Harbour Bridge! The brand-new bridge which crosses over to Badgerys Creek, was opened on the 3rd of February 2020.

Stage one of Western Sydney Airport’s construction only spans over six percent of the property’s 1780-hectare site; However, it involved the relocation of 1.8 million cubic metres of earth! The site sits approximately 44 kilometres west of Sydney CBD.

The airport’s scheduled completion date in 2026, will be the introduction to an incredible flux of 10 million international and domestic passengers a year!

Following a lengthy, controversial debate of whether or not the airport should be built, Australian Federal government made the executive decision to officially designate the large area as the location of Sydney’s second airport.
