Sydney Gateway is a critical element of the NSW Government’s long-term strategy to invest in an integrated transport network and make journeys easier, safer and faster. By 2036, the Project would provide capacity for an additional 60,000 vehicles per day.
Sydney Airport and Port Botany are among the busiest and most important air and sea freight terminals in Australia. Sydney Airport caters for around 40 per cent of Australia’s international passenger movements, 46 per cent of domestic/ regional passenger movements and 50 per cent of air freight. Port Botany handles 99 per cent of NSW’s container demand, moving more than 6,000 containers on average every day. Providing direct connections between the Sydney motorway network, Sydney Airport and Port Botany will help separate airport and freight traffic from local traffic in Mascot. Additionally, the high volumes of through traffic in Mascot will be alleviated.

I am pleased to provide an endorsement for ARCH's work on Sydney Gateway Stages 1 & 3, a complex major infrastructure project which showcases an exceptional commitment to sustainability. ARCH's team demonstrated extensive knowledge and understanding of sustainability risks and opportunities and ensured that they were appropriately tracked and recognised within the project. Arch also facilitated comprehensive training to upskill the internal project team, giving them the skills to deliver future projects.
ARCH's input and dedication enabled effective implementation and recognition of the significant effort to deliver sustainable outcomes across the project. Driving active recognition for the integration of community and Aboriginal artworks throughout the project, an Australian first innovative pavement design tool and implementation of ort links and the emphasis on reducing embodied carbon emissions demonstrate the Project's dedication to a greener future and a thriving, interconnected community.Thank you to the entire team for their
commitment and dedication.
