More restrictions will be in place from 11pm to help the large crowds move around after the midnight fireworks.
Orange residents can avoid roads and jump on to the T1 Western Line, which will run to the city stations every 15 minutes from Penrith, and every 30 minutes from Richmond from 2pm until midnight.
