Parramatta. Express RiverCats to Sydney CBD

The State Government will announce the introduction of an express RiverCat service to move commuters between Parramatta and Kings Street Wharf, rather than Circular Quay, as part of the State Budget, the Sunday Telegraph reported. The paper said the Government’s decision comes after failed attempts to find a private operator to run the service. Premier Rees said $4 million would be invested per year over two years to deliver the service. The service would be operational before the new year.
