Sydneysiders are being told to ditch their cars and opt for public transport, with large crowds expected to travel to events across the city.
Music lovers are predicted to head to The Domain in the CBD on Saturday night as Chaka Khan performs for Sydney Festival's popular free event, Summer Sounds.
Extra buses are running to and from the northern beaches, eastern suburbs and along other major corridors in a bid to combat the numbers expected to gather for the funk-soul vocalist.
Those catching a train are advised to plan ahead as trackwork is affecting numerous lines.
Motorists are being told to avoid the area.
Meanwhile at Pirtek Stadium in Parramatta, the NSW Transport Management Centre (TMC) says the A-League clash between the Western Sydney Wanderers and Sydney FC is set to attract a sell-out crowd.
All tickets to the event include travel on public transport to and from Pirtek Stadium on train services (bounded by Bomaderry, Goulburn, Bathurst and Dungog stations), regular Sydney bus services and Sydney Ferries.
Free shuttle buses are running to and from the stadium and the station, but again people should be aware of trackwork.
Anyone driving should allow extra travel time and expect delays around Parramatta especially on Church St, O'Connell St and Victoria Road, the TMC says.
