Minister for Transport Gladys Berejiklian is warning Sydney’s ferry customers to take buses and trains with massive numbers expected at Vivid in the CBD and on the water this weekend.

“With a record 270,000 visitors to Vivid on its first weekend, we’re expecting a bumper crowd on the second weekend, tonight and on Saturday and Sunday night,” Ms Berejiklian said.

“We’re asking customers to plan ahead and take some of the 3200 extra bus services and 350 extra train services planned for the three week event that have capacity for more than half a million customers.

There will also be an additional 132 ferry services running over the weekends however these are expected to be very crowded, so the extra train and bus services are the best way to get to and from Vivid, Ms Berejiklian said.

“There are plenty of extra bus and train services scheduled to help get customers to the event and home again, so we’re asking customers to plan ahead and avoid queues on the ferry wharves.”
