Sydneysiders will have the chance to run down Australia’s newest international runway before it welcomes its first passengers and planes in October 2026. This once-in-a-lifetime Runway Run/Walk event will turn the nearly-complete airport into a historic racecourse, with distances from a half-marathon to 14-kilometre, seven-kilometre and four-kilometre events.
Yeh, next to working class suburbs and the Blue Mts National Park. There were other choices (from memory). Kingsford Smith Airport (Sydney Internaitional airport) flightpaths don’t operate 24/7. The curfew is from 11pm to 6am.
Can you imagine what it would be like to have the noise of planes every hour of every day? No curfew. Noise insulation grants will be available for some residents but nevertheless, it will result in health problems in vulnerable populations and will spoil the tranquil beauty of the BM Nat Park
The planes are gonna go right over me. I’ll need to redo every window double glazed or I wont be able to sleep. Probably 20-30k, realistically I’ll have to move cause I don’t have that money. Not to mention having windows closed on summer nights is insane.
I am sorry you and so many others will be impacted.
no curfew is completely derranged. The point of a city is to be a place for humans to live, not maximise freight shipped or whatever.
No curfew? Is there any official information on that? I guess any airport in city boundaries has one.
