Double demerit points are now in force ahead of ANZAC Day and the end of school holidays and will end at 11.59pm on 28 April.

Higher fines and double demerit points will apply for offences such as speeding, not wearing a seatbelt, driving under the influence or using a mobile phone illegally.

The NSW Police Force will also launch a high-visibility policing operation during ANZAC Day.

Operation ANZAC Day 2024 will be active across the Sydney CBD  on 25 April 2024, beginning with the Dawn Service, Anzac Day March, Commemoration Service, and Sunset Service.

Assistant Commissioner Scott Whyte APM said police have been working closely with RSL NSW, Veterans Affairs NSW, Premier’s Department and other government agencies to ensure a safe and secure environment for tomorrow’s Sydney CBD commemorations.

“If you are planning on attending one of the many events in the Sydney CBD, or across the state, do so safely and respectfully.

“Licensing police will be patrolling in and around licensed venues to respond to any incidents of alcohol-related crime or anti-social behaviour,” Assistant Commissioner Whyte said.

Alcohol cannot be consumed on public transport and is prohibited from in Alcohol-Free Zones within the CBD.
