Information hub returns to mall

Published on 09 June 2020

As intrastate travel makes a comeback, so too has the City of Hobart’s visitor information hub at Elizabeth Mall.

The Hub – along with most tourism service providers – closed in March as a result of COVID-19 travel restrictions.

As part of the City of Hobart-operated Tasmanian Travel and Information Centre (TTIC), the hub has now resumed, providing services to visitors and locals wanting to enjoy the many attractions and experiences that Hobart and Tasmania have to offer.

“This is another step towards getting back to our normal operations,” City of Hobart General Manager Nick Heath said. “As tourism operators start to reopen, the staff at the Hub will be equipped with the latest information to assist residents who want to get out and explore the state.”

Parks Passes are available at the Hub, and it is also the ticketing agent for the Bruny Island Ferry and Port Arthur.

Throughout the closure, TTIC staff have been busy taking enquiries and selling gift cards for future travellers.

Also currently available are pensioner concession parking voucher booklets, to make collection easier for eligible residents. Pension card and proof of vehicle registration are required when collecting the vouchers.

The Elizabeth Mall Information Hub is open Monday to Saturday from 10 am to 3 pm. At other times, bookings and enquiries can be made by phone 03 6238 4222 (during business hours) or at www.hobarttravelcentre.com.au.
