Public lockout at Albert Park GP precinct set to triple in length

New laws would allow the Albert Park Formula 1 precinct to be closed to the public for up to three weeks during race periods, extending the current maximum seven-day lockout. The proposed changes, to be introduced to parliament by the state government, are part of the Australian Grand Prix Amendment Bill. The new laws would permit a race 'declaration period' of between seven and 21 days to accommodate the set-up and dismantling of the race infrastructure. The community will be invited to provide feedback on the plan, which also includes updates to corporate and intellectual property rights, new permissions for non-motorsports events hosted by the Australian Grand Prix Corporation, and an increased annual state payment to Parks Victoria for the ongoing maintenance of Albert Park. 'The Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix is one of the highest attended races on the Formula 1 calendar,' Major Events Minister Steve Dimopoulos said. 'This consultation will ensure we're listening to the community as we create a safer and more secure Albert Park.' The proposed changes come as the scale of the Melbourne Grand Prix continues to grow. The 2025 event broke attendance records, drawing 465,498 spectators over four days – an increase of more than 10,000 from the previous year. In 2023 and 2024, Victorian taxpayers paid $100 million each year to cover the shortfall in revenue which failed to meet the costs of staging the grand prix. The government says the new 21-day window will allow for safer, more controlled access for workers and reduced risk for park users during construction periods.

Reckless food delivery riders making footpaths ‘lawless' in busy shopping strips

'I have an electric bike that's, you know, just a standard daggy old bike that happens to give me an extra push up the hill,' she said. 'I don't think it's capable of doing more than I could almost walk myself. But the ones that you see [delivery workers using] don't seem to be those. They seem to be ... they operate like a motorbike ... they're not pedalling, they're just riding them.' On Victorian roads, electric bikes cannot have motors that operate at speeds above 25km/h. However, bikes with more powerful motors are still permitted on private properties, and as such can be legally imported and sold in Australia. Loading Business owners and community representatives are keen to see more stringent regulations and new approaches. Daly suggests that the onus should be on delivery companies to educate their workers on road rules before they are allowed to begin working. Phillip Mansour, executive officer of Carlton Inc, the trading association for the Lygon Street area, wants signs reminding e-bike and e-scooter riders not to be on the footpath attached to the back of existing parking signs along the street. 'All the infrastructure is already there – it essentially requires the same infrastructure, and [we] just put another sign on the back.' There have also been widespread calls for individual e-bikes to be properly registered, as distinct from push-bikes and motorbikes. The coroner called for e-bikes to be categorised as motorbikes following the death of delivery worker Nitin Haldipur Prabhu, a change that would require e-bike riders to wear more protective gear, including a motorcycle helmet, but this might also allow the riding of e-bikes on freeways, which would likely increase risks for delivery workers. In the absence of strong government or council action, some business owners and citizens are stepping up. Aldemir, along with other businesses on Glenferrie Road, has tapped into a network of international students from the nearby Swinburne University, attempting to set up his own delivery platform so that he can educate e-bike riders and regulate their behaviour. Loading 'I'm trying to use their network, because there's a lot of international students who need jobs, so we're trying to get them to, you know, jump on bikes and use the system properly, not illegally.' Aldemir and Daly acknowledge that delivery e-bike riders aren't going away, with their behaviour also stemming from a place of necessity and vulnerability. 'We all want our food delivered, and we all need people who are prepared to do that job,' Daly notes. Aldemir has made an effort to understand the conditions delivery workers are facing. Most delivery companies do not provide an hourly wage, forcing workers to try and complete as many deliveries as possible, often working for multiple companies at the same time. 'What the riders are telling me is that they're just like, they're making, on average, about $7 to $10 an hour. So it's below minimum wage,' he said. 'We're not that heartless, but they've just got to observe the law. They've got to be safe for their own benefit as well, not only for our community. It's for their benefit.'
