FAQsI’m having a party. Will my guests be able to access my property by car?
We recommend guests travel by public transport on NYE. If guests are arriving by vehicle, check road closure times and notes under them. Roads are closed to general traffic at 5pm; earlier if your property borders a Managed Access area.
When resident access is still permitted, drivers must present photo ID with a residential address within the road closure area to gain access. Therefore, unless you are in the car with your guest, they will not be able to enter once roads are closed to general traffic.
I’m having a party. Will my guests be able to bring alcohol?Guests can carry unopened alcohol into an alcohol free zone, but it cannot be opened or consumed on the street. If you are in an alcohol prohibited area, guests need to drop off alcohol prior to 8am on New Years Eve.
Is it ok for guests to leave if I see vehicles moving in my area?If guests are travelling by car we recommend they don’t leave before 3am. While you might see cars moving, there are many road closures throughout the area and it’s likely that vehicles will meet a road closure at another location and be stuck in traffic. NSW Police reopen roads as soon as possible (they want to go home too!)
Can taxis enter when a road is closed?No preferential treatment is given to taxis or hire cars. They will not be able to access roads once they have closed.
I have reserved a spot in the park/reserve for my friend or family member. Will they be able to get in once the area is deemed full?
No resident or general public access will be permitted once Managed Access areas and Quibaree Park fill to a safe capacity. The area will close and there will be strictly no access. We recommend arriving with your friends and family at the same time.
