Transport NSW urges people in Sydney and the surrounding area to work from home this week if possible to avoid the bad weather.
Several areas in NSW suffer from heavy rains and floods in a so-called One-on-one year event.
Transport NSW posted a message on Sunday evening saying, “Given the current weather conditions affecting roads and public transportation in the greater Sydney area, we urge our customers to stop unnecessary Avoid travel, especially in flood-affected areas.
« A number of buses operated by Busways in the West and Northwest Sydney regions, particularly in the Hawkesbury, Penrith and Blacktown regions, will arrive tomorrow (Monday) Do not operate due to the effects of the flooding.
« Customers should work from home whenever possible, and drivers who have to drive should be extremely careful and nobody ls driving through flooded water. «
I just got this rather ominous warning from @TransportforNSW – » Work from home « but this time because of the weather, not the virus. # SydneyFloodspic.twitter.com / UzdYdgjf8x
Advice from Transport NSW comes after residents of western Penrith were told to evacuate on Sunday afternoon.
Evacuation took place for all properties within the Nepean River limited area south of the Great Western Highway and west of Peach Tree Creek, including: Captains Road; Fitch Avenue; Ladbury Avenue; Memorial Avenue; Nepean Avenue; and Recreation Avenue.
Residents have been told that if the flood reaches 7.96 m, the Great Western Highway’s evacuation route could be cut and trapped.
It will continue to rain in Sydney tomorrow (Monday) , and the west of Sydney is about to celebrate 50 years of weather.
