Sydney Showers and Morning Traffic

Wake Up Sydney with Johnny Rocket gets your Monday moving on 6 July 2026, with the latest on Sydney’s weather, traffic and trains. It’s a cool and showery start to the week across the city, with the Sydney CBD around 10.7°C and heading for a top of 17°C. Parramatta is set to reach 16°C, while Bondi will climb to about 17°C. Expect showers throughout the day, so keep your jacket handy and don’t forget the umbrella. On the roads, commuters are facing a busy morning. Major issues include a two-car crash closing Richmond Road at Berkshire Park, delays on James Ruse Drive at North Parramatta, a truck and motorcycle crash on the M7 near the M2, plus breakdowns impacting Fairford Road at Padstow and the Hume Highway at Villawood. Drivers should allow extra travel time and take care in the wet conditions. There’s better news for public transport users, with Sydney Trains and Metro running normally across all lines and no reported incidents this morning. Plus, Sydney stays lively with NAIDOC Week events, Bondi Festival activities, and Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox performing tonight at the Sydney Opera House. Tune in to Wake Up Sydney for your essential start to the day — weather, roads, rail and what’s happening across the Harbour City.
