Public transport will be free on Sunday until midnight with the State government waiving fees to encourage residents to take part in the historic proclamation of His Majesty The King ceremony in Sydney.

Even those unable to make their way to the city will still be able to take advantage of the free travel, which will be offered on trains, buses, ferries and light rail across the State.

Premier Dominic Perrottet said the ceremony will be held outside NSW Parliament House from 12.30pm, with the event involving an Australian Defence Force Guard, the NSW Police Force band performing the Royal and Australian anthems, a NSW Police Mounted Unit and a 21-Gun Salute from Government House Sydney.

He said the event was an opportunity for everyone to take part in the historic occasion.

“While out State and Nation, and the Commonwealth of Nations continue to mourn the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, it is fitting that we celebrate the accession of His Majesty King Charles the Third,” Mr Perrottet said.

Guests joining the premier at the event will include the Chief Justice of NSW Andrew Bell, NSW Governor Margaret Beazley, NSW ministers, MPs and Labor leader Chris Minns.

Transport Minister David Elliott said waiving bus and train tickets would give all residents the chance to attend the historic ceremony.

However, travel will also be free across regional NSW.

“The unique way in which our Constitutional Monarchy enshrines the rights of the people means that it’s only appropriate for everyone to be given the chance to attend the Proclamation,” Mr Elliott said.

A proclamation occurs when a new Sovereign takes over the throne after his or her predecessor dies.

The successor is proclaimed as soon as possible at an Accession Council in London.

The proclamation ceremony for His Majesty King Charles III, will take place outside NSW Parliament House from 12.30pm on Sunday, with the general public invited to view the event from Macquarie Street.

Preceding the ceremony, NSW Governor Margaret Beazley will preside at a meeting of the Executive Council where she will receive formal advice from the Premier and Ministers that King Charles III be proclaimed King of Australia.

Operation Commander, Superintendent Anthony Bell, said extra police resources will be deployed to ensure a safe and secure environment for those who will be attending both event locations.

More Coverage

“We will be working closely with other agencies to ensure the free-flow of vehicular, pedestrian and commuter traffic around the event and across the Sydney CBD.

“With large crowds expected to gather at the floral tribute site and in Macquarie Street, we will be deploying general and specialist resources to ensure the safety of community members attending these events,” Superintendent Anthony Bell said.

As the State and nation mourn the passing of Her Late Majesty, her image will continue to be displayed on the sails of the Sydney Opera House each night for the full national mourning period.

Festive season to see timetable changes and trackwork at Central and T3 Bankstown line

Passengers are urged to plan ahead through the Christmas and New Year holiday period, 23 December- 7 January, as essential Rail Repair Plan trackwork continues to build a more resilient and reliable network. 

On most lines trains will run to a Saturday timetable 23-31 December, with a Sunday timetable on New Years Day. 

On the T3, buses will replace trains between Lidcombe, Cabramatta, and Bankstown from Saturday 23 to Tuesday 26 December.  

From Wednesday 27 December through the New Years weekend to Thursday 4 January, buses will replace trains between Lidcombe, Cabramatta, and Sydenham.  

T3 trackwork will have timetable impacts for the T2, T3, T5 and T8 lines, so passengers are urged to check their apps for the most up-to-date info.  

From 10am on New Years Eve to 6am on New Years Day, special trains will run between Liverpool and the City via Regents Park, while buses will continue to replace trains between Lidcombe and Sydenham.  

From Friday 5 January to Sunday 7 January buses will replace trains between Lidcombe and Sydenham. 

Trackwork will continue on parts of the T3 Bankstown Line from 23 December until Thursday 25 January as part of the metro conversion and trains will not run between Bankstown and Sydenham. 

From 10.30pm on Saturday 23 December to 2am on Sunday 24 December, trackwork will affect trains on the City Circle, T1, T2, T8, T9, Central Coast & Newcastle and Blue Mountains lines.     City Circle trains run in one direction only and buses replace most trains between Strathfield and Central.      On the T1, buses will replace trains between Berowra and Gordon on Saturday 6 January and Sunday 7 January. 

Buses also replace T9 Northern Line trains between Hornsby and Strathfield, and metro services between Chatswood and Tallawong during this time.    If you are heading to the airport on Saturday 6 January trains may run to a changed timetable due to trackwork between Revesby and Turrella from 9am to 3pm.       On Sunday the 7 January buses replace the all-stations trains between Wolli Creek and Revesby from 8.40am to 3pm on the T8 line. Express trains will continue to run but will not stop at stations between Padstow and Turrella.   

Sydney Trains will have around 1,600 workers undertaking a significant amount of work to remove around 68 high-priority defects over the holiday period. 

Some trains may run to changed stopping pattern and timetable. Passengers may need to change trains and are encouraged to allow extra travel time and plan ahead by visiting transportnsw.info or using trip planning apps.   

As many enjoy New Years celebrations, each suburban and intercity train line will have a tailored service to meet the anticipated rail demand. 

Sydney Trains thanks our passengers for their patience as we work to build a more resilient and reliable network.

Opal card price cap to be increased for sundays, but limit added for saturdays and public holidays.

Elizabeth Daoud

Changes to the price of travelling on NSW’s public transport system on weekends has left some parents furious.

Previously, the cost of travelling on all forms of transport - buses, trains, ferry and light rail - was capped at $2.80 on Sundays for adults, children and those with concession Opal cards.

But from July 6, that limit is set to increase almost three-fold to $8.05 for adults and almost double to $4 for children and those with Opal concessions.

The $8.05 cap will be applied to Saturdays and public holidays as well as Sundays.

Previously, the daily fare cap for Saturdays was $16.10.

For people with the senior or pensioner gold Opal card, there are no changes to the daily cap of $2.50.

In the video below: NSW Health minister issues stern warning

The New South Wales Health Minister has issued a stern warning to any Victorians thinking of crossing the border.

The price increase has been slammed by parents on social media, who say the move is “absurd”.

“So sad. For a lot of families this was how they could afford to take their kids exploring!,” one person said on Facebook.

“It’s ripping us off,” another said.

Some parents have said they’re simply going to give up travelling on public transport and opt to drive instead.

“No more travelling public transport,” one person said.

“We’ll be using the car or uber instead, stuff that,” another added.

“Sundays were the only day we can afford to take our whole family on the train,” one mum said.

“Now it would cost almost $30. This is an insane increase.

“I’d rather drive and pay for parking. Way to encourage environmental responsibility.”

Crowds and distancing

Transport for NSW said the fare changes would help alleviate crowds on Sunday services and manage physical distancing on public transport during the COVID-19 pandemic .

“The weekend daily travel cap is set at $8.05 which is half the weekday cap,” a Transport for NSW spokesperson told 7NEWS.com.au .

" ‘This is a fairer outcome for customers.’ "

“While this is an increase to the previous Sunday cap of $2.80, it is a significant decrease to the previous Saturday cap of $16.10.

“The weekend travel cap will allow families flexibility to take advantage of discounted travel across bus, train, light rail and ferry on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays.

“This is a fairer outcome for customers as many enjoy getting out and about on both days of the weekend and on public holidays.”

Opal Card Challenge: $2.80 Travel All Day Sunday in Sydney and Beyond

An update on this story. The NSW Government changed the rules in July 2020 and rather than let people travel extra cheap on Sunday have now introduced a new fare so that it costs the same to travel on Saturday and Sunday, with a cap of $8.05 on both days.

Which is half price for Saturday travel but almost three times as much as it used to be for Sundays. While the prices have sadly changed, the rest of this story remains the same and you can still travel a lot of ground, now on both days, on a capped fare.

Fear is a funny thing. Although not when you’re gripped by it.

I’ve known for a while now that the time had come to try to do a video for my site, and I had an idea for one… to see how far I could go on $2.80 on an Opal Card from Sydney on a Sunday.

You see on a Sunday anyone with an Opal Card can travel for almost 24 hours for $2.80. Or 23 hours, 59 minutes to be exact, from 4:00am Sunday morning until 3:59am on Monday morning.

You can zip around on trains, ferries and buses, and everything is included except the airport train and private ferries like the Manly Fast Ferries.

It really is a bargain day out and you can go up to the Blue Mountains, down to the south coast or up to the central coast, and explore new places or revisit ones you love but haven’t had a chance to get back to for years.

Read: Weekend getaways Sydney locals and visitors will love

I asked a few friends if they’d be up for joining me on a day running around on the trains, and my friend Nick was the only one crazy / lovely enough to say yes (perhaps my suggesting we meet at Central station at 6am on a Sunday had something to do with the low response rate).

A Day on the trains with Opal Card from Sydney

I borrowed a GoPro HERO4 Black to try for the first time, and we set off. The idea being we’d go to Kiama for breakfast, back to Sydney for lunch, and then up to Newcastle for dinner and back. A plan that was adjusted to become a bit of a random stop on the Central Coast to have a few beers and play some pool when I realised Newcastle had closed their city train stations.

So off we set. It was a moody, rainy and grey day but we were safe and warm on the train, catching up as we rode along.

Then it was up to Sydney for lunch in Darlinghurst, back on the train to head up to the Central Coast for our pub and pool stop, and back down to Sydney again.

Read: New Sydney Hotels for 2021 and 2022

We travelled around for twelve hours, so only half of what we could have done on $2.80. But it still felt like a big day out.

But here’s the thing: once I had all the vision from the GoPro I was kinda terrified of trying to edit it together. I’d been told Premiere Pro was the best to use if I was mixing up different kinds of sources, so even though that day was all GoPro I thought it was a good chance to try to learn how to use that system.

Editing GoPro footage on my Surface Pro 3

The day I’d set aside to start editing it I felt sick in the morning. Stressed and worried about how I’d go. And that’s when I realised I just had to give myself permission to go oh so slowly, to make mistakes and not worry. To remember the first one is a challenge in so many ways and to accept that.

I asked my friend Peyton if I could use one of his tracks for the music, and he immediately said yes and had a few ideas as to which ones may work. I then realised the track was about twice the length that I’d need, and the lovely Alex Taylor stepped in and edited a shorter version for me (thank you boys!).

Now I won’t lie. Editing this first one was a very slow process as I had to figure everything out for the first time. There were frustrating moments, but every little thing I did for the first time was a mini victory. I faced that fear, got over it and got on with it.

I also decided that even though I was at home at the time and could have used my desktop, I wanted to do my first project on my Surface Pro 3. It’s a decision I’m glad I made because I now that we’ve made our first one together I know we can continue to make more on the road. Or in the sky, or on a ship, or anywhere really.

So now the time has come to share my first attempt at a video. I can already see things I want to change, those things I should have done differently, but I’ve decided to keep this one as it is. Sure it has flaws, but what first project doesn’t?

Now I can’t wait to try another one. Fear? Pfffft.

A 2020 update … when I put this video together it only cost $2.50 to travel all day Sunday but now that’s gone up to $2.80. So don’t worry about what looks like a mistake on the intro, and enjoy the trip…

Love your work Amanda! Great job on the editing. I loved the shots of the trains and the wires flying past with the fish eye effect making them look like they were bending with the speed. And of course wonderful to have Peyton as the soundtrack. Great job!! 🙂

Awww…. thanks! That means a lot that you enjoyed my first attempt. And I’m with you on the soundtrack, we always love having Peyton singing to us 🙂

Great work Amanda, have been looking at getting a Surface Pro 3 lately as a replacement for my aging PC, good to know editing can be done (relatively) easily, as I do quite a bit of design work/photography/video editing. Looking forward to your next one

Hey Blake, thank you! I still have so much to learn but I’m having fun trying 🙂

' data-src=

Love this!!! The video is fantastic (well done) and the track….. Perfect!!

Thank you! My first attempt at a video and a challenge in more ways than one. Thank goodness Nick was crazy enough to join me on the running around. And we love Peyton! Anything set to his music is better 🙂

South Coast trains offline after severe weather exposes NSW railway track's fragility

A rail line with the soil washed out from under it.

Illawarra rail commuters say the disruption of services on the South Coast is all too familiar after severe weather wreaked havoc on the line and halted trains between Waterfall and Bomaderry from Saturday.

Transport for NSW scrambled to arrange bus replacements with local private bus contractors stepping into to fill the void for stranded commuters.

Transport for NSW says trains will resume this morning between Kiama and the city in both directions, however they will run to a reduced weekend timetable.

Buses will continue to replace trains between Bomaderry and Kiama.

The department is urging commuters to spend time planning their journeys or consider working from home.

Tony Horneman from the Illawarra Rail Fail community group said the ongoing closure felt all too common.

"Down the South Coast the commuters have kind of got used to this," he said.

"We have a third world rail service on the South Coast line and most people have developed a Plan B, but the reality is not all of us can work from home.

"There's a lot of jobs where you have to be physically at work, like at Sydney Airport, so they have to come up with creative ideas."

He said driving a car just added to the gridlock, so residents had looked at "carpooling or catching a bus".

Rail tracks with sand washed out from underneath.

The South Coast line is electric for two tracks to Kiama where it becomes a single track diesel service.

Mr Horneman said during severe weather events the lack of investment in infrastructure became painfully evident.

"It just shows you how precarious the South Coast rail line has become and the fact that it is not durable to support the current volume of rail use by passengers and also freight," he said.

Commuters at Wollongong Station told the ABC Monday morning they were frustrated by the impact of the line closure on their ability to travel around the region.

One explained it had taken him an hour and a half to get from Thirroul to Dapto, a distance of 26 kilometres.

Others said they were used to the situation and said they already had other plans and were taking the changes with "a grain of salt".

Rail line with the soil washed out from underneath.

Minister for the Illawarra Ryan Park said he has raised the issue with Transport Minister Jo Haylen.

"They're working to get that back online as quickly as possible because as a commuter city we know just how important that is," he said.

Transport for NSW has identified issues with the line at Wombarra, Scarborough, Port Kembla, the Macquarie Rivulet, Lilyvale, Coalcliff, Bomaderry and Bald Hill.

It says Sydney Trains has 250 workers carrying out repairs.

Buses will be stationed at Wollongong and Waterfall to supplement trains.

Counting the cost

The emotional toll caused by the severe weather over the last 48 hours is continuing to impact residents in the region.

Water up the side of a garage door.

Thirroul florist Kelly Jones had floodwaters rush through her business on Lawrence Hargrave Drive and then into her home, which is just behind the shop.

"It's been exhausting, emotional, and stressful," she said.

Ms Jones had monitored information from the Bureau of Meteorology on Thursday and Friday and prepared as best she could.

"We did everything we could to prepare and then all we could do was watch, just watch the inevitable," she said.

Her shop was inundated, with the water escaping as quickly as it rushed in.

"It runs right through, and just leaves a lake of mud," Ms Jones said.

mud and silt on the floor.

Growing up in Thirroul, Ms Jones said she was familiar with the flooding events the region has recorded, but the frequency and intensity of this event left her questioning everything.

"I'm unsure of the contributing factors. Could there be blockages, or perhaps creek and stormwater diversions are affecting it?" she said.

It was the third year in a row she had floodwaters through her property and the second consecutive year they had flowed through her business.

"I am uninsurable," Ms Jones said.

She added that since a 2019 Wollongong City Council flood plain study deemed the area flood prone, she had been unable to find an insurance company willing to give her cover.

A fence bent over

"I put 30 submissions out for insurance for our house. I got six responses in total and only one would consider insuring me if I took flood off the insurance policy," Ms Jones said.

She said she found the advice around insurance "inconsistent" and difficult to navigate and she is urging state and federal government's to improve support and insurance options for small businesses impacted by recurring natural disasters.

"The loss of things is somewhat trivial. It's just the exhaustion and so much effort that has to go into cleaning and repairing ."
