Our new website

Welcome to the City of Hobart's new website.

Our new website aims to improve your experience. We want anyone, on any device, to be able to find services and information as quickly and easily as possible.

To achieve this, we have improved accessibility, mobile responsiveness, navigation and search functionality.

What's been improved

  • Search functionality: to help you quickly find what you're after by searching for keywords.
  • Navigation: to make it easy to move around the website.
  • Content: we have reviewed each page to make sure it's accurate and up-to-date.
  • Mobile-friendly: the website has been optimised for all devices, including smartphones and tablets.
  • External search engines: we have written our content to make it easy to find through search engines such as Google.
  • Accessibility: we have improved the accessibility with the aim of meeting WCAG 2.2 Level AA standards.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Will my bookmarks still work?

Yes. Your bookmarks will redirect you to the relevant page on the new website.

If you notice any broken links, please let us know.

Has anything been removed?

We have removed some information which was found to be out-of-date, and no longer relevant or accurate.

Majority of the information has just been reorganised. So if it was on the previous website, it'll be on the new website, just in a new spot!

Is the new site accessible for all users?

Yes, accessibility was a key focus in the design of the new website. We're aiming to meet WCAG 2.2 standards.

If you notice anywhere the accessibility could be improved, please let us know.
