About Preston
Preston is a large and diverse suburb in Melbourne northern corridor, about 7 km from the CBD, postcode 3072. High Street is the main commercial strip and also houses Preston Market, one of the largest open air produce markets in Victoria with over 150 stalls. The suburb has a long industrial and working class history and retains a mix of established families, recent migrants and younger residents drawn by relatively affordable housing. Bell Street runs across the southern boundary and Murray Road is another significant cross street. Preston borders Northcote to the south, Reservoir to the north and Thornbury to the west. Preston has two train stations, Preston Station and Bell Station, both on the Mernda and Hurstbridge lines. High Street is served by trams running into the city. Bus routes also cross the suburb connecting it to Coburg, Reservoir and Bundoora. Public transport within the inner Melbourne network is solid from Preston, but getting to Melbourne Airport still requires either a taxi or an indirect journey via Southern Cross and the Skybus. The airport is roughly 18 km from Preston by road. Silver Taxi serves Preston for airport transfers and general bookings across the suburb. Fares to Melbourne Airport run from $56 to $62. Call 0412 456 588 to book, available any time of day or night.
