Burwood Heights is the residential pocket immediately south of central Burwood, bordered by Liverpool Road, Coronation Parade and the Enfield border. Unlike the busy Burwood Westfield strip, this 2136 postcode area is mostly quiet residential — post-war homes, small apartment blocks, leafy streets like Edward Street, Park Avenue and the cul-de-sacs near Henley Park. From here it's roughly 14 kilometres to Sydney Airport, handled by Prime Rider Shuttle at the same fixed Inner West fare with no surge.
The Route — Liverpool Road to M4 / WestConnex
From Burwood Heights, our drivers head out via Liverpool Road or Coronation Parade to Parramatta Road, picking up the M4 East / WestConnex tunnel at Haberfield. From there it's a clean run through to the Eastern Distributor and Sydney Airport. Off-peak the journey is around 14 km in 20–28 minutes. When the M4 tunnel is heavy our drivers use Liverpool Road south → Princes Highway via Marrickville as the back-route. See our Sydney Airport pickup guide for terminal-specific kerbside details.
