Due to the current Covid-19 outbreak in the Northern Territory, a number of travel restrictions are in place for those wishing to enter or travel through communities in Central Australia, including Mutitjulu.

Anyone located within a lockdown area, as designated by the Northern Territory Government’s Chief Health Officer (CHO), is prohibited from travelling to Mutitjulu until advised otherwise by the CHO. Travel to Mutitjulu is also prohibited for anyone located within an identified Covid-19 hotspot as designated by the CHO until such a time as that declaration is removed.

Any essential workers (as defined by the Northern Territory Government) wishing to travel to Mutitjulu from a designated lockdown area or hotspot are advised to contact the Northern Territory Government’s Coronavirus Lockdown Advice Hotline at 1800 193 111 to ensure they meet the essential worker requirements and have obtained the relevant paper work prior to travelling.

Mutitjulu residents who are currently in the designated lockdown area and unable to return home during this period are advised to contact the Central Australian Aboriginal Congress on (08) 8951 4400 or Tangentyere Council on 08 8951 4222.

Essential workers wishing to travel to Mutitjulu should contact the Northern Territory Government’s Northern Territory Government’s Coronavirus Lockdown Advice Hotline at 1800 193 111 prior to travelling.

Anyone currently in, or planning to travel to, Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park must check the latest Northern Territory Government travel restrictions and follow the advice provided by the CHO.

Any visitors to Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park who have been in a lockdown area or hotspot within the identified periods and are staying at the Ayers Rock Resort should contact the Resort on 08 8957 7417 to arrange appropriate isolation and testing as required by the CHO.

Please re-consider your need to travel to Aboriginal Land during this time. Protecting our community remains the responsibility of everyone, and we ask that you respect the wishes of our Aboriginal communities during this difficult period.
