Why are services to Parramatta sometimes suspended?
On occasion Sydney Ferries must suspend services to Parramatta, usually during or after heavy rainfall. This is because a large volume of water can rush over the weir next to Parramatta Wharf, making it difficult for vessels to berth safely. In addition, heavy rain can wash debris into Parramatta River, which must be removed before vessels can safely navigate the river. In this situation Sydney Ferries will monitor the situation closely and Parramatta services will terminate at Rydalmere Wharf. Sydney Ferries will resume services to Parramatta Wharf when it is safe to do so.
