Passengers are urged to plan ahead this weekend, 13-14 April, as essential Rail Repair Plan track work continues to build a more resilient and reliable network in New South Wales.
Across the weekend, buses will replace trains between Hornsby and Wynyard on the T1 North Shore Line.
On the T1 Western and T2 Leppington Lines, buses will replace trains between Parramatta and Olympic Park on Saturday from 4am to 5am, Sunday from 4am to 9am, and again from 8.30pm to 2am.

The T7 Olympic Park Line will see buses replace trains between Olympic Park and Lidcombe on Saturday from 4am to 5am and Sunday from 4am to 9am. Some of those buses will be continuing to Parramatta.
Sydney Trains will have around 879 workers undertaking a significant amount of work over this period, including turnout renewal, Sydney Harbour Bridge decking, drainage, signal commissioning and track circuit renewal, as well as the removal of 20 high-priority defects.
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.
Sydney Trains thanks our passengers for their patience as we work to build a more resilient and reliable network.
