NEW WEEKEND NIGHT TRAFFIC BAN FOR GEELONG'S LITTLE MALOP STREET

To guarantee emergency vehicles can respond quickly, a section of Little Malop Street in Geelong will close to most traffic on weekend nights.

From December 1, 2025, Little Malop Street between Gheringhap and Moorabool Streets will be restricted to emergency services and permit holders from 10:00 PM to 5:00 AM on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

The move addresses traffic congestion that has previously blocked emergency vehicle access.

Mayor Stretch Kontelj OAM emphasized that public safety is the priority.

"We don’t want to see a situation where someone needs help, but the response is impeded by traffic delays," he said.

The public is encouraged to use designated pick-up zones on the wider Malop Street, Ryrie Street, or the taxi zone on Moorabool Street.

FOUR ARRESTED AFTER AXE-WIELDING ROBBERY IN GEELONG CBD

Police have arrested four people in Belmont following a dramatic daylight robbery in Geelong’s CBD, where two masked men armed with axes were caught on camera.

Officers allege that two men entered the Cash Converters store on Ryrie Street about 11.40am on Wednesday and smashed a glass display cabinet with an axe before stealing jewellery.

The pair reportedly fled on foot towards Gheringhap Street.

Police arrived within minutes, blocking one lane of traffic on Ryrie Street while the store was temporarily closed by 12.15pm.

CCTV footage from a nearby business shows two masked men—one carrying a duffel bag and wearing high-visibility clothing—removing their balaclavas as they walked through a carpark.

FOUR TEENS QUESTIONED AFTER STOLEN CAR CRASHES IN GEELONG

Geelong Crime Investigation Unit detectives have interviewed four teenagers following a series of collisions and reports of erratic driving in the Geelong area yesterday.

Police received multiple Triple Zero calls about a Nissan Pathfinder driving dangerously across metropolitan Melbourne earlier in the day.

Officers attempted to intercept the vehicle on Patullos Road in Lara shortly after 12pm, but it allegedly sped away.

The Pathfinder, believed to have been stolen from Coburg North, was reportedly linked to earlier hit-run incidents and reckless driving through Keilor East, Bundoora and Mill Park.

About 12.30pm, police were called to two crashes on Moorabool Street in Geelong.

The Nissan was then involved in another hit-run at the intersection of Ryrie Street before colliding with a second vehicle and coming to a stop at Myers Street.

No one was injured.

Five people fled the scene on foot.

Police cordoned off the area and arrested four of the alleged passengers, while the driver—considered the primary person of interest—remains outstanding.

A 15-year-old girl from Whittlesea was released pending further inquiries.

A 13-year-old boy from Hume, a 13-year-old girl from Whittlesea, and a 14-year-old boy from Melton were each issued cautions after being interviewed by detectives.

The investigation into the group’s alleged prior offences has been referred to police in metropolitan Melbourne and remains ongoing.

Detectives are also investigating whether the vehicle was stolen from someone known to the driver.

Anyone who witnessed the incidents, has dashcam or CCTV footage, or can provide information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report online at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.
