Hobart Rivulet CBD access

The Hobart Rivulet where it runs through central Hobart and down to Macquarie Point is considered a confined space. Access to the rivulet in these areas is controlled by locked gates to make sure only suitably trained persons can enter for safety reasons. 

Access to this area of the Hobart Rivulet is restricted to contractors, or council officers, who have to enter this area to conduct repairs or install services. All contractors who enter must have a current confined spaces training qualification. 

To apply to access the Hobart Rivulet please phone 03 6238 2886 or email your request to coh@hobartcity.com.au. An application form will be supplied on request only.

Please note that access permits will not be granted to any persons or groups who are not entering the rivulet to do required works.
