Closures include turf sportsgrounds, excluding the Melrose and Nicholls synthetic fields and the Woden athletic track.

The decision has been taken in order to minimise damage to the turf surfaces and in the interests of public safety.

Peak sporting bodies are being contacted by the ACT Government to advise of the closure for training activity.
