I've lived in the area for 25 years. I lernt very quickly to avoid driving on Sydney Rd on the weekends if I wanted to actually make it somewhere and not sit in traffic for ages. I think the same argument was used by the businesses when the clearways were instigated...was there any significant downturn to business from that?
