National Protective Services will once again be out and about around Albert Park helping local residents get safely to their homes and businesses as crowds head to the F1 action for the 2018 Melbourne Grand Prix.
It’s a job the NPS event team has proudly done for 22 years — every year since the Grand Prix came to Melbourne in 1996.
NPS CEO Rachaell Saunders said security officers were based on every street to let local residents through.
They also helped direct Grand Prix visitors around street closures so they could get to the track and to nearby parking options.
“Once again, our team will be out working during the Australian Grand Prix.
It’s a fantastic Melbourne event, but we need to make sure that local people can get to their houses and businesses, and that visitors who are unfamiliar with the area can get to the event on time,” she says.
