About Lyndhurst
Lyndhurst is a residential suburb in the City of Casey, located approximately 42 km south east of the Melbourne CBD. The suburb was developed primarily from the late 1990s as part of the expanding outer south east residential corridor, with the bulk of the housing stock comprising newer family homes on subdivided estate lots. The suburb sits along the Northern Cranbourne Road corridor between Lynbrook to the north and the broader Cranbourne area to the south. The surrounding area includes significant green space reserves and wetlands typical of the Casey growth corridor, alongside the managed estate streets of the residential development. Public transport in Lyndhurst consists primarily of bus routes connecting to Lynbrook Station and Cranbourne Station on the Cranbourne rail line. These bus connections exist but are infrequent outside peak commuter hours, creating a genuine gap in coverage for residents needing to travel at non standard times. The suburb is relatively quiet with minimal commercial activity within its boundaries. Residents rely on Cranbourne town centre, Lynbrook Village, or Hampton Park for everyday retail and services. Lyndhurst Primary School serves the local education market. Casey City Council manages the area as part of the broader outer south east growth corridor.
Lyndhurst is a residential estate suburb on the outer growth corridor of Melbourne in the City of Casey. The suburb has no train station and limited bus connections, making taxis the primary option for airport travel, medical trips, and late night returns.
Silver Taxi Melbourne covers Lyndhurst from our Clayton base, running 24 hours a day, seven days a week across the Northern Cranbourne Road and Berwick-Cranbourne Road corridors.
Outer Growth Corridor: Fast Pickup from Clayton
The Lyndhurst corridor sits along the outer growth corridor between Lynbrook and Cranbourne, connected by Northern Cranbourne Road. Our Clayton base gives us good access to this corridor, meaning pickup times from Lyndhurst are faster than you might expect for an outer area.
For early morning airport runs and late night returns, the distance from base to Lyndhurst is well within our standard dispatch area. Call 0412 456 588 and a cab will be on its way.
No Train Station: Direct Transport Required
Lyndhurst has no train station within its boundaries. The nearest rail options are Lynbrook Station to the north and Cranbourne Station to the south, both accessible by road but not by convenient walking distance from most Lyndhurst estate streets. For airport travel in particular, connecting from Lyndhurst to a station, then to the city, then to Skybus is a multi step journey that can take well over two hours.
A direct taxi from Lyndhurst to Melbourne Airport reaches the terminal in approximately 55 to 65 minutes depending on the time of departure and traffic conditions.
Largely Residential Estate: Consistent Transport Needs
Lyndhurst is characterised by relatively new residential estates, with families in purpose built homes that were developed from the late 1990s and 2000s onward. Transport needs here are consistent: airport runs, school pickups during unusual circumstances, trips to Cranbourne for shopping and services, and late night returns from the city or entertainment areas further north.
Silver Taxi covers all of these without restriction or surge pricing.

Can I book a Maxi Taxi in Lyndhurst for a group?
Yes. Silver Taxi Melbourne operates Maxi Taxi in Lyndhurst for groups of up to 11 passengers.

The Maxi surcharge is $17.80 on top of the metered fare. For groups of four or more, a single Maxi Taxi costs less per head than two individual taxis. Maxi Taxi in Lyndhurst is also used for corporate group transport, wedding party transfers, and large family bookings.
