    Sunny Sydney Morning Update

    09/11/2026 | 4 mins.
    Wake Up Sydney brings you the latest weather, traffic and transport update for Tuesday, 10 November 2026.

    Sydney is in for a sunny day with clear skies across the city. The CBD starts at 13.7°C and is heading for a top of 25°C, while Parramatta will be warmer at 27°C. Bondi is looking pleasant with a top of 23°C.

    On the roads, allow extra travel time this morning. A semi-trailer breakdown at Kellyville has closed the eastbound right-turn lane on Memorial Avenue approaching Windsor Road. At Lilyfield, a two-car crash on City West Link at Catherine Street is causing moderate eastbound delays, with southbound traffic on Catherine Street also affected.

    The earlier motorcycle breakdown on the M5 at Moorebank has cleared, but westbound traffic is still heavy. At Razorback, a diesel spill on Picton Road near Menangle Road is slowing northbound traffic.

    Public transport is running smoothly, with Sydney Trains and Metro operating normally and no reported incidents. With major events on tonight, including the Foo Fighters at Accor Stadium, consider taking the train, especially if you are heading to Sydney Olympic Park.

    Cooler Sunday and Travel Delays

    07/11/2026 | 5 mins.
    Wake Up Sydney brings you your Sunday morning update on weather, traffic and trains across Sydney.

    After yesterday’s heat, Sydney is waking to a cooler and breezier day, with showers possible across the city. The CBD and Parramatta are both heading for a top of 19°C, while Bondi will be cooler at 17°C with brisk coastal winds. Keep a jacket and umbrella handy if you are heading out.

    On the roads, traffic is mostly clear, but there is one issue at Eastlakes. A car breakdown on Southern Cross Drive southbound approaching Gardeners Road has closed one of three lanes, so allow extra time if travelling through the area.

    Train passengers should plan ahead due to major weekend trackwork. City Circle trains are not stopping at Circular Quay, St James or Museum, with light rail, buses or walking recommended as alternatives. Buses are also replacing trains on several sections, including Macarthur to Glenfield to Fairfield, Liverpool to Lidcombe via Regents Park, and Bankstown to Lidcombe.

    There are timetable and stopping changes on parts of the T1, T2 and other connected services. At Toongabbie, a power issue is affecting screens, lifts and Opal equipment. Check your transport apps before travelling and allow extra time for your journey.

    Sydney is set for a warm and stormy day, with the CBD heading for 29°C, Parramatta reaching 31°C and Bondi at 28°C. Showers and storms are expected to build later, so it is best to get outdoor plans done in the morning and keep an umbrella close for the afternoon.

    Traffic is mostly quiet across Sydney, but drivers in Bankstown should watch for delays on Canterbury Road at Fairford Road, where a breakdown involving a car towing a trailer has closed one northbound lane.

    Train passengers are urged to plan ahead due to major weekend trackwork across the network. There are no trains around the City Circle, though services continue between Central, Town Hall and Wynyard. Buses are replacing trains on parts of the T2, T3 and T8 lines, with more changes affecting Richmond, T4, South Coast and other services.

    Before you head out, check your transport apps, allow extra travel time and stay tuned to Wake Up Sydney for the latest updates.
