Sydney's New $2.7BN Mega Airport

Published 2024-05-15
Sydney is constructing a new Mega Airport, The Western Sydney International (Nancy-Bird Walton) Airport. This mega project plans to be one of the largest airports in Asia and comes at a heavy engineering cost to Australia. Today we explore some of the insane engineering behind the mega airport and see how it will transform travel to Sydney

    So the rather amazing structure in the thumbnail looks NOTHING like the actual building? Channels that do that get an instant "don't recommend". I suggest other people might like to do this to discourage dishonest clickbait channels, otherwise it probably works for the channel to do these tricks.
  • @karlzerbst1772
    Why the click bate thumbnail? The actual airport being built too boring to picture?
  • @mikeleonard8031
    Photo is very deceiving. Airport will look like other Ozzie airports, boring and nothing special.

    If I was in the middle of Sydney and look east, I would Not be looking at Botany Bay
  • @Kustom2170
    The airport should have been built and completed in the 90's 😵‍💫
  • I will be interested to see how the City to Airport travel turns out.. NSW not known for its ease of getting from A to B..
  • If you stand in the middle of Sydney and look directly east, you will be looking out to the Tasman Sea. Botany Bay is to the south....
  • @Skybar23
    The airport design is so underwhelming like an airport from 50 years ago. I mean who TF designed it? Some 80 year old?
  • @douglachman7330
    Too much marketing bable and the cover photo is imaginative if not drug enduced but total misleading. Handy overview though.
  • @beanoyip06
    Australia’s airports all look like an inflated bus depot.
  • @Mick_Unfiltered
    Great video! My only critique is pronunciation of Bringelly Rd, it’s pronounced “Brin-Jelly” like jello, lol. I actually live on bringelly road, this project is super exciting for us, our property is expected to gain $400k in value on the airports opening, we are laughing to the bank.

    When Syd goes on and build a Mega airport, Melbourne has never been able to have even a train to the airport. Even Perth and Brisbane have!

    Please do a video about the recently announced airport in Lisbon, high speed rail between Lisbon and madrid and the new bridge

    Construction companies are overcharging Australians so much we soon wont be able to afford essential infrastructure.
  • @carlosbxx
    The airport anyone living around the city will try to avoid having to use... It will take forever to get there, particularly compared to the existing one. You'd think they would have thought of a high speed train but you'll have to go around and take ages.
  • @jamesg2382
    I have to say the design looks like it was done by a bean counter. And nothing like the rendering. The train transport link looks underwhelming, but when I looked for a decent map it turns out there will be three seperate lines linking the airport. Including Sydney metro from the city centre. Not just a spur
  • I can't believe they think one runway will be sufficient to handle 10,000,000 passengers/40,000 flights per year! They better get going on the second runway!
  • @chasingjohn
    No plans to have a direct train from the city centre to the airport. A Metro line to St Marys, then changing to a train to get to the city centre will take ages. St Marys is very far out. Will take over 1.5hrs
