Access Canberra Hours: Easter, Anzac Day Holidays
Access Canberra will offer reduced services over the Easter long weekend and Anzac Day public holiday.
Service Centres and Specialised Centres will be closed on:
On public holidays, the Access Canberra Contact Centre (13 22 81) will be open from 9am to 5pm. Limited services will be available on Good Friday.
Outside these times the Access Canberra Contact Centre will be still open to report urgent public safety issues like fallen trees and faulty traffic lights 24/7.
Access Canberra Executive Branch Manager Emily Springett said most Access Canberra transactions can be completed online – 24 hours a day, every day of the year.
“There are only a few transactions that have to be completed at a Service Centre, including applying for a new driver’s licence, establishing proof of identity and collecting new number plates,” Ms Springett said.
As Canberrans prepare for holidays, they are reminded to ensure their life admin is up to date, including renewing their car and caravan registration.
“Service Centres will be very busy in the lead up to the public holidays, so please make sure you plan ahead and don’t leave your visit too late,” Ms Springett said.
To avoid the queues, you can visit the Access Canberra website to book an appointment at any Service Centre or check the current wait times before you visit.
“As we enter one of our busiest periods of the year, we ask the Canberra community for patience and kindness as our teams work to assist you,” Ms Springett said.
