ACT COVID-19 Update: Changes to current restrictions

The ACT is currently in lockdown and Canberrans are being asked to stay at home to assist in the response to positive cases of COVID-19 in the ACT. While the ACT eagerly awaits the planned end of lockdown on Friday October 15, some changes to restrictions come into effect from today.

Two visitors are now allowed in another household, up to five people can gather outside for up to four hours, and all non-essential retail will be allowed to operate click-and-collect or delivery services.

National parks have reopened, dental services can resume, and personal training and outdoor boot camps can recommence, with no more than two people — excluding instructors. 

From today, non-essential retail stores will also be able to begin click-and-collect services for the first time since this lockdown began, but with only five people allowed in the store — larger businesses may not realistically be able to resume trading.

For all current restrictions please visit the ACT Gov website.
