We are one of Australia’s premier transport hubs situated on an estate of 2,400 hectares. The greater Melbourne Airport precinct offers significant aeronautical infrastructure, a large business park and extensive road networks. The airport is located 22 kilometres northwest of Melbourne’s central business district and is well connected to the city’s freeway and arterial road network. Plans are progressing for a rail link connecting the airport to the suburban rail network via Sunshine. The airport is close to major industrial areas and serves as a hub for freight and logistics, while providing employment to thousands of residents in nearby suburban growth corridors. Melbourne is growing and Melbourne Airport is too. We expect to welcome more than 60 million travellers per year by 2033, and more than 14,000 people currently work at the airport, in industries as diverse as aviation, hospitality, freight and logistics, transport and retail.
