   More parks across Melbourne have started drawing circles on the grass
   to encourage physical distancing when hanging out outdoors. Melbourne
   city council has announced three-metre painted circles will be
   installed across Princes Park in Carlton, Flagstaff Gardens and Kings
   Domain South in the CBD, and Buluk Park in Docklands.

   The CBD circles will be two metres apart and there will be around 30
   circles drawn up in each location. Melbourne city council says it was
   inspired by physical distancing circles installed in New York, San
   Francisco and London. The council is expecting to install the circles
   across other CBD parks if they’re deemed successful.

   This initiative follows the announcement that Prahran Square in
   Melbourne’s south installed similar circles this week.

explainer.
