NBN Co has scheduled overnight maintenance work in parts of Melbourne that may briefly disrupt internet and phone services for local businesses.
- What it is: A planned fibre repair is scheduled for the night of 19 July 2026, running from 11pm to 7am, affecting NBN infrastructure in the Footscray and St Kilda areas.
- Who is affected: Businesses connected via NBN in and around Footscray and St Kilda may experience an internet and phone outage of up to eight hours during the maintenance window.
- What the risk is: Any systems relying on the internet overnight, such as cloud backups, remote monitoring, or after-hours phone lines, could be temporarily unavailable.
