Cold Sunday, Clear Roads

Wake Up Sydney with Johnny Rocket eases into a cool and cosy Sunday morning, kicking off with a playful tale of an unexpected Bunnings haul before getting into everything Sydneysiders need to know to start the day. Weather: It’s a chilly, showery winter Sunday across Sydney, so rug up and keep an umbrella handy. The CBD starts at 10.7°C and is heading for a top of 17°C, Parramatta is sitting at 9.9°C with a top of 17°C, while Bondi begins at 11.9°C and reaches around 16°C. Early showers are expected across the city. Traffic: Good news on the roads — Sydney traffic is running smoothly with no current incidents reported. It’s shaping up as a cruisy morning for a relaxed Sunday drive, a brunch trip, or a winter wander around town. Trains and transport: Public transport will need extra planning today, with major weekend trackwork impacting several services. There are no trains on the City Circle or between Central and Wynyard, with passengers advised to use light rail or buses. Changes are also affecting the T1 North Shore and Western lines, parts of the Inner West, the T8 Airport and South Line, and there are no Sydney Metro services between Tallawong and Sydenham. Check your transport apps and allow extra travel time. Johnny also points listeners toward some Sunday highlights, including Lee Serle’s free Day Shapes performance and workshop at Sydney Fish Market, the ongoing Bondi Festival, and Christmas in July at The Rocks. While the roads are clear, the trains need a little strategy — but Sydney still has plenty of winter charm to enjoy.
