Ferry services between Manly and the city have been cancelled in both directions as strong winds continue to batter the state.

Buses are being temporarily drafted in to try and replace the ferries but there are only a limited number, Transport New South Wales said on Friday.

It's not the only mass transit service that's suffered in the hectic weather.
