Airport Safety

Vehicles must give way to moving aircraft and be aware of safety distances when driving near parked and refuelling aircraft.

• Drivers must not drive on the manoeuvring area unless the driver holds an appropriate authority to drive airside and the vehicle has an authority for airside access.
• You must obey all speed limits and parking restrictions within the airport.
• No seat no ride on any type of vehicle.
• Any accidents which cause personal or property damage should be reported to the Duty Operations Officer.
• Airside is a NO SMOKING area – this includes inside vehicles

Sydney Metro Airport Camden produces a detailed guide to safety on the airports, and all airport users should read the Airside Safety Guide.

Additional detailed rules for airside driving can be found in Rules for Drivers Operating Airside.

Both of these publications can also be obtained the Sydney Metro Airport management office.

Concurrently all user of our facilities have an obligation to understand and apply all relevant legislation including the Occupational Health & Safety Act, N.S.W. Workcover requirements and other relevant legislation.
