Melbourne Airport Rail will take passengers from the airport to where they need to go – be that work, home or one of Victoria’s key tourism destinations – via a rail service for the first time.

Airport trains will run through the Metro Tunnel, providing passengers with a 10-minute turn-up-and go service from Melbourne Airport and a less than 30-minute journey into the CBD.

Melbourne Airport Rail will connect seamlessly into the existing regional and metropolitan network.

Planning and development work is underway, with construction due to start in 2022. The target completion date is 2029.
