There are limitations on these activities, including travel and time limits.
From 11:59pm on Sunday 13 September some changes are being made to restrictions for those in metropolitan Melbourne.
Social
* Two people or a household can meet outdoors for a maximum of two hours for social interaction, exercise or recreation within 5km of their home.
* People living alone or single parents can nominate one person with whom they can form a ‘single social bubble’. The ‘single social bubble’ allows you to visit each other for social connection.
Single parents with dependents (including young children) who cannot be left alone will be allowed to include the dependents in the bubble.
If you live in metropolitan Melbourne you can only form a bubble with someone in metropolitan Melbourne, not regional Victoria.
* If the person you nominate to be in your bubble lives with other people, you can only visit if they are at home alone. Alternatively, they can visit you at home.

When will we move to the next step?
The goal during this step is to contain widespread transmission of the virus and to get to very low community transmission. This means from 28 September reaching an average of 30-50 cases per day over a 14-day period and subject to advice from our public health officials.
