Coming in from Perth Zoo, the run to Perth Airport uses Tonkin Highway, then Roe Highway and the Kwinana Freeway. The Freeway is the fast part and the surface streets at either end are the slow part. Southbound afternoon peak is the one window where the corridor genuinely backs up.
44 km is the road distance actually driven between Perth Zoo and Rockingham, not a straight line on a map, and the 41 min estimate is measured over that road. Both numbers set the fixed fare, so a longer way round in traffic costs you nothing and gives the driver no reason to take one.
