Permanent traffic changes are now in place on and around Church Street (between Market & Macquarie Streets) for the Parramatta Light Rail.

Additionally, on CommBank Stadium event days the roads around Riverside are busier than usual with ticketholders making their way to the stadium during the afternoon or evening peak. For event days, check the CommBank event calendar.

Motorists traveling to Riverside should note these changes and events may affect the amount of time that it takes them to drive and park. Plan ahead by checking the LiveTraffic website.
