Due to unscheduled maintenance, the lift at Waurn Ponds is not operational today, Monday 29 January.
We expect the problem to be resolved within the next few days. We'll provide any updates as they become available.
As the lift is out of service, the only access is the stairs. Our friendly team is on hand to help patrons who cannot use the stairs to access items on their behalf. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
