Parks and reserves that have reopened include:

• Wilson Botanic Park Berwick

Betula Reserve, Doveton

• Frog Hollow Reserve, Endeavour Hills

• KM Reedy Reserve, Hampton Park

• J and P Camm Reserve, Cranbourne

• Power Road Reserve, Doveton

• Ray Bastin Reserve, Narre Warren

• Sweeny Reserve, Berwick

• Bayview Park, Narre Warren (1001 Steps)

• Robert Booth Reserve

Residents are reminded that stage-four restrictions still apply including:

• Not to travel more than 5km from your home

• Exercise limited to one hour

• Wear a mask

• Remain 1.5 meters apart at all times, and

• Only walk with one other person, unless you are with children who need supervision, in which case they can also accompany you.
