Melbourne Airport statement regarding taxi blockade

We're advising the following:

• Any passengers catching a departing flight tonight, we're recommending you head to the airport earlier than you might have been planning to, to allow for any delays on the roads into the terminal.
• Anyone who's expecting to pick up an arriving passenger tonight, first check the Melbourne Airport website to see the most up to date flight information. We're also recommending drivers head to the airport earlier than they might, and to use the free Ring & Ride wait zone if they arrive with time to spare. To find the Ring & Ride, take the T4 exit off the Tullamarine Freeway, after Mickleham Road if you're Sunbury bound.

For any arriving passengers who have been affected by the blockade, we're advising them that they can depart the airport on a SkyBus service to the city that is free of charge, which Melbourne Airport is paying for. We're deeply appreciative of the great work SkyBus is doing to help with this situation.
