Airport Drive, is a short 1.5 kilometre semi-standard freeway in Melbourne, Australia, between Sharps Road Tullamarine and the Western Ring Road at Airport West. This road is an important thoroughfare for the Melbourne Airport business park along South Centre Road. A proposed extension of the freeway is to run through the business park to Melrose Drive, Melbourne Airport, yet no announcement or commitment has been made to construct the road.
Airport Drive opened to traffic in May 1997 and was declared a freeway under the Road Management Act 2004.[1]
