West Gate Bridge works
Getting to and from the MCG is easier with public transport with extra services added.

Across summer there will be other major freeway disruptions on the Monash Freeway, West Gate Freeway and Princes Freeway. Plan ahead and take public transport if you can.For more information visit vicroads.vic.gov.au/westgate.
COVIDSafe Measures
COVIDSafe settings will be in place throughout the MCG, so please play your role and follow these simple directions:
Clean hands. Please remember to wash or sanitise your hands regularly, using one of the MCG’s installed 275 Dettol hand sanitisation stations throughout the Ground.
Know when it’s time to bow out. If you have COVID-19 symptoms or have been advised to get tested by a contact, workplace or school, please get tested and isolate until you get a negative result.
Protect the head. Pack a fitted face mask, as masks must be worn at all times within the MCG by patrons over eight years of age, unless seated in your assigned outdoor seat. Masks must be worn by those in indoor facilities unless eating or drinking.
Stay at least a couple of cricket bat’s length apart. For good measure, please stay 1.5 metres from one another.
