And if you're cruising around Darlinghurst, construction work may play a symphony with your brake pads on the Eastern Distributor off-ramp. Caution and patience, dear drivers. 
    For the audiophiles trekking to see The Chemical Brothers ignite the Sydney Showground Stadium, let the trains ferry you effortlessly to Olympic Park Station. Johnny drops the deets on Transport for NSW's event page for a hassle-free musical pilgrimage.
