With the coronavirus crisis in New South Wales deepening, statewide stay-at-home orders have been put in place until at least the end of September. 

A three-week NSW Police and Australian Defence Force operation began on 16 August to enforce the restrictions, and fines of up to $5,000 are now in place for those not following the rules.

Residents of Greater Sydney can only travel within their local government area or within five kilometres from their home for certain reasons including shopping for essentials and exercising. Special restrictions also apply to the state government’s LGAs of concern.

But where exactly is the 5km cut-off from your home? Scroll down to our interactive map below to find out.
