The City of Melbourne is committed to creating healthy and safe environments for everyone by reducing smoking and vaping in our city and supporting people to quit.

Our Smoke-free Melbourne Policy is a comprehensive framework to protect the community from the harms of smoking and vaping.

One of the ways we do this is by creating smoke-free areas, where people are protected from second-hand smoke and vape aerosol.

We’re speaking with residents, businesses, workers, building owners, students, tourists and visitors about whether the entrances and footpaths at the front of the Melbourne Town Hall and council administration buildings in the city should become smoke-free areas.

The proposal includes Melbourne Town Hall, Council House 1 and Council House 2. See the below map and proposed plans for exact boundaries.
