There were 12 new cases on Thursday and the 14-day rolling average for Melbourne dropped to 26.7.
The regional Victorian average remains steady at 1.1.
Meanwhile, Mr Andrews has hinted Melbourne's coronavirus restrictions could be lifted faster than planned as the state steadily manages down its second wave.
With Melbourne's crucial 14-day new case average now well below the 30 level, it appears likely the city will soon move to the next phase of the state government roadmap.
Asked on Wednesday if he was looking at going further when he announces an easing of restrictions in coming days, Mr Andrews said: "Yes, I am."
"But I'm not in a position to give you the full list of what we're looking at."
Any announcements are expected on Sunday.
Under the government roadmap announced earlier this month, the changes could include allowing public gatherings for five people from two households.
Schools, child care and some workplaces would open, along with outdoor pools, while personal trainers could operate with two clients.
There could be outdoor religious services for up to five people, plus a leader.
