1998: Olympic Boulevard opens

This week marks 25 years since Olympic Boulevard was open to pedestrians (and vehicles) on 30 November 1998. Costing $33 million, this was to be the main artery for pedestrians accessing venues at Sydney Olympic Park as part of the 2000 Olympic Games.

When no events are held, one can drive their car down the boulevard as a local road.
