About Blackburn

Blackburn is a residential suburb in Melbourne's east at postcode 3130, about 16 km from the CBD. Whitehorse Road runs east to west through the centre and is the main commercial corridor, with Station Street connecting to the shops near Blackburn Station. The suburb is well known for its tree cover, with large established eucalypts along many streets. Blackburn Lake Sanctuary is a nature reserve just south of the station that is used by locals throughout the year. Housing is mostly detached homes built from the 1950s to the 1980s on large blocks. Blackburn Station is on both the Belgrave and Lilydale lines, making it one of the more connected rail stops in the east. Bus routes run along Whitehorse Road and through surrounding streets. The Eastern Freeway is accessible via Springvale Road or Whitehorse Road. Despite good rail access for city commuting, airport trips still require a train to the city and then a separate airport connection, which most residents prefer to skip by taking a direct taxi. Silver Taxi handles airport transfers from Blackburn to Melbourne Airport for an estimated $94 to $103. The route uses the Eastern Freeway and CityLink and typically takes 45 to 55 minutes. All tolls are included in the quoted price. To book a taxi in Blackburn, call 0412 456 588.
