Traffic and Transport for the Commonwealth Games

A City Transformed

Host cities are transformed during a major event like the Commonwealth Games which means they have to operate differently.

They have to ensure they can keep up with increased demands placed on the roads and public transport systems while also taking into account the normal operations and movements of businesses and residents.

In March 2006, the Games will temporarily change the way parts of Melbourne operate.

Real time travel information is available on the VicRoads Website.

Community Information

Detailed information has been produced for the communities that are either hosting Road Events or are located near Games venues. These local guides and publications have been delivered directly to letterboxes and provide area-specific information as part of the Government’s commitment to keep people informed. They are an invaluable guide to local residents and businesses.
