Access
Auckland Airport's main access is by road.
A free shuttle bus connects the international and domestic terminals to each other; they are also linked by a walkway.
Two state highways connect to the airport: State Highway 20A and State Highway 20B. State Highway 20A leaves the airport to the north and allows access to central Auckland, the western and northern suburbs, and Northland. State Highway 20B leaves the airport to the east and allows access to southern and eastern Auckland, and the rest of the North Island. Currently, there is no direct motorway access to the airport, and at some point, airport traffic must use Auckland city streets. The completion of the State Highway 20 Manukau Extension in 2010 has allowed motorway access to the State Highway 1 via State Highway 20B. In light traffic, a trip to the central city takes around 40 – 45 minutes.
Taxis and shuttles are available at both terminals.

Stop up th’ access and passage to remorse,
That no compunctious visitings of nature
Shake my fell purpose.”
