Areas with wheelchair access include exhibition halls and display spaces, the MOTAT Café and and the MOTAT Shops. Only trams with wide doors (such as the Melbourne trams normally operating during the week) can accommodate wheelchairs and the accompanying caregiver must be available to lift the visitor onto the tram.

We have a limited number of wheelchairs available for use while you are at the Museum so please get in touch before your visit for more information.
Visitors with accessibility needs can visit MOTAT individually without prior booking. If you would like to make use of the mobility parking at MOTAT Great North Road we require advanced notice so we can arrange for someone to meet you.
