Extreme risk zones will also be downgraded to red zones, allowing stranded Victorians to return home with a test and home quarantine.
Health Minister Martin Foley announced the details during Wednesday’s press conference.
“What that means is that both Victorians and non-Victorian residents returning from those areas will need to have a test after arriving within 72 hours and wait for a negative result prior to moving about the community.”
Stranded residents and those outside the border bubble will no longer need a permit to cross the Victorian border.
Border residents are being reminded that the Wodonga Racecourse testing clinic is now open until 5 pm each day.
