On New Year's Eve, people attending the celebrations are strongly encouraged to use public transport services, which run all night. If you are planning to catch a taxi, please note that it is very difficult for vehicles to get in and out of the city due to road closures.

Taxi ranks are recommended as a safer option as they are staffed by a security officer in a distinct uniform and monitored by security cameras. A Safe City taxi rank will be located on Queen Street between Bourke and Little Collins streets, with another in Bourke Street, between Swanston and Russell streets.
