Telstra and the ACT government have agreed to work together on a plan to refurbish and reopen Canberra's iconic Black Mountain Tower.

The Telstra Tower closed to the the public in 2021 after tourism operators labelled the state of the site an "embarrassment".

Telstra plans to refurbish the tower in a way that celebrates Ngunnawal culture, and expects to have a cafe, shop and observation deck when it reopens.

I don't really care about the cafe, shop, or cultural displays but it'd be good to have the observation deck again (ideally free this time, but I don't like my chances).
