00:01In the early hours of the morning, this procession of vintage fire trucks became the first vehicles
00:07to officially drive on the new M12 motorway.
00:10Got to share a very special moment with having our historic fire engines, which dated from the 1940s up until
00:17the 1970s,
00:18drive along the M12 for the very first time.
00:24Opening the M12, it is a momentous event for Western Sydney,
00:28for Western Sydney International Airport as they prepare for flights this year and it will be the opening of the
00:35front door to the airport.
00:36The new road was far from busy on day one, taking commuters from Cecil Hills to an airport that's not
00:42yet in operation.
00:45The bike path that runs parallel to the new motorway at times garnered more excitement.
00:51It's great. It's so new. I feel like I'm in a new country.
00:57We're looking forward to the interchange connection, so all the way to the airport, so it's pretty good.
01:04I'm very happy with it.
01:05The M12 is the first in a series of transport links to the airport.
01:09Five new bus routes will also be introduced in July, connecting areas like Oren Park, Campbelltown and Liverpool.
01:16It may be quiet on the M12 today, but it is expected to get much busier once the new airport
01:22opens.
01:22With the Metro line to the International Terminal still under construction, this toll-free road will act as the main
01:28way in and out.
01:29The first passenger flights from Western Sydney International Airport are set to take off in October.
01:35Come riding on,55.
01:36From next week, the T noi biasurton is also on the third passenger side toward the prejudice of authorities.
