Construction has begun on the Light Rail to Woden project, including Raising London Circuit. We advise that you plan your visit with additional time to locate parking nearby, as there is reduced capacity and increased demand on available parking space near the Canberra Museum and Gallery.

There may also be some adjustments to traffic conditions on Constitution Avenue, London Circuit, and surrounding roads. 

Stay in the loop
