On a 100.2 km run like Surfers Paradise → Brisbane Airport, the gap between quiet-road and peak-hour timing is the largest single variable — the distance is fixed, the waiting time is not, which is why A$273.98 is a midpoint rather than a quote. The figures here mirror the regulated maximum from Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) — drivers may charge less than the A$273.98 typical between Surfers Paradise and Brisbane Airport, never more.
