Business owners and industry groups say Victoria's new road map out of COVID-19 lockdown is still too slow and that the moving infection targets for lifting restrictions did not provide shops, restaurants and cafes the certainty they need to plan to reopen.
Hospitality businesses can also open at that point provided they offer mostly outdoor service and have group limits of 10 and overall capacity limits in place. But other businesses including beauty salons and gyms will not open until there have been no new cases in the state for a fortnight. That same anxiety is reflected in small businesses throughout the Chapel Street area, said Chapel Street Precinct Association general manager Chrissie Maus.
