The Greater Sydney lockdown will be extended by at least four weeks, with a raft of new rules set to come into place.


Authorities have confirmed the current stay-at-home orders for Greater Sydney - including the Central Coast, the Blue Mountains, Wollongong and Shellharbour - will remain in place until 28 August.

It comes as New South Wales announced 177 new locally acquired COVID-19 cases and one further death.
