Morrish believed the gridlock was caused by "non-airport" traffic detouring through the airport link to get on to the Southwestern Motorway.
What does an Wellington based person know about Auckland traffic? Is he trying to infer that Southbond traffic is leaving the South Western at SH20A and routing via the Airport then back on SH20B to SH20? Man thats got to be one painful detor to try an shortcut.
The problem being that:
1. AIAL keeps building more Car Park spaces onsite, and encourages the use of there own carparking services.
2. With the airport developments keep expanding e.g. all the Bussiness Parks just North of the Shopping Centre (Most land owned by AIAL). The only way to head South from these work places is via Puhnui Road. You can't get Southbound from the SH20A to SH20 Link.
On an whole Auckland Traffic has gotten very bad over the last 3 weeks, the previous Friday it took me close to 2hours for an 30km drive home.
