The Access Map helps everyone explore the city with confidence:

It highlights accessible parking, toilets, facilities, and tourism information. The information is in both the online and printed maps. This helps you plan your visit based on your individual needs, supports and interests.

Whether you are using a mobility aid or pram, have low vision, or simply want to know the most convenient route, the Access Map makes getting around easier for everyone.

We will be reviewing and updating the map with community input throughout November and December, with a full update planned for early 2026. Please bear with us as we identify and refresh any gaps in the data.
