Info
Distinguish from the road of the same name in Cape Town, South Africa, on the eastern side of Table Mountain.The Southern Cross Drive is a 4.8 km (3 mi) dual carriage untolled motorway in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Part of the M1 and Sydney Orbital Network, the road, a freeway that opened in 1969, links the Eastern Distributor and South Dowling Street at Kensington in the north to General Holmes Drive at Sydney Airport in the south.
In August 2013 the Southern Cross Drive carried about 20,000 vehicles per day, both north and southbound.
Southern Cross Drive was originally built to provide access to the Sydney central business district for suburbs in Southern Sydney and South-eastern Sydney. Part of the road is built over reclaimed swampland including the Mill Pond, the Mill Steam, and Botany Dams, much of which has been reclaimed for golf courses including the Eastlakes Golf Club, The Lakes Golf Club and Bonnie Doon Golf Club.
