However in May 1996, Holsworthy was again brought forward as a possible site for Sydney's second airport but on 3rd September 1997 the Federal Airports Commission eliminated the Holsworthy Military area as a potential site for Sydney's second major airport. Badgerys Creek was originally declared the site for Sydney's second airport in February 1986 and land was bought up for the proposed airport but very little has been done. In late 1997 a second EIS was released showing three alternative layouts for the airport at Badgerys Creek. A decision as to whether to go ahead is expected to be made in late 1998. The main methods of transport to Liverpool today are the railway and motor transport.
Many people own their own cars and drive to where they want to go.
However many people rely on public transport while others choose this method of getting around. For many years the railway went only to the city via Granville or Regents Park. However in recent years two new lines have been constructed. One takes passengers from Liverpool directly to Parramatta without changing at Granville. The second does not run through Liverpool but can be boarded at Holsworthy.
