Ambulance Victoria response time performance

Publisher Ambulance VictoriaLicence CC BY 4.0Tables 2Latest 2025-06-04Covers since 2018

Ambulance Victoria publishes its response time performance for each financial year, for Code 1 (lights and sirens) and Code 2 (urgent) incidents. A response time runs from the receipt of the triple zero call until paramedics arrive on scene.

Two tables are here. One gives each council area (LGA) and the other each urban centre and locality (UCL) of more than 7,500 people. Each gives the share of Code 1 incidents reached within 15 minutes, the average response time in seconds and the number of incidents.

Ambulance Victoria releases these 2 tables as one dataset on its portal, so every table here shares the version date 2025-06-04. Each table has its own page with a format picker, a field list, a sample record and its version history.

Also called: Ambulance Victoria LGA response time performance, Ambulance Victoria UCL response time performance, Code 1 ambulance response times by LGA, Code 1 ambulance response times by town, Victorian ambulance response times by council, Victorian ambulance response times in urban centres.
