We have an exclusive look at plans to slash Sydney gridlock and ease overflowing car parks.

At Campbelltown station. Vast commuter car parks every day, full and overflowing drivers desperate.

It's it's triggy, especially from six in the morning.

New multi story parking open soon. But vehicles are pouring in from all over the Southwest with the fastest ground region in Australia. You know, and we need the transport links. One of the hotspots and congestion busting transport proposals electrifying passenger rail from rapidly expanding Wallandilly to Campbelltown. Currently it's diesel plus freight trains.

We've really got a Harry Potter nineteenth century.

Service further north of Metro linking Campbelltown to the Western Sydney Airport precinct, bringing rail to the booming Camden area that alleviates so much traffic and congestion coming here to Campbelltown elsewhere, filling missing links Talawong to Saint Mary's Metro rail joining the new airport to Leppington.

You would actually create a rail orbital around Sydney, would create efficiencies within the network, It would draw people off other lines. It would be good for everyone, like drivers.

Another option instead of crawling traffic.

People in Western Sydney get up in the morning and they chase the sun to go to work and chase the sun to come back home.

And East West Metro connecting the airport to Paramatta via the Smithfield weather Or Park industrial area the.

Largest in Australia and it's not serviced by any public transport.

Transport experts extra rail stations can be part of the solution, but not if they create more congestion reaching them backing. Instead stations surrounded by high density housing and regular bus connections.

What you don't want is a station isolated from everywhere and everyone has to drive into that station.

Despite a growing metro network in Sydney, the car remains dominant.

Have we achieved much in terms of reducing the long distance car tripe?

Sadly very little chrismas seven years
