Frankston Station is the end of the Frankston line and the main rail gateway to the Mornington Peninsula. It was rebuilt with a modern station building and bus interchange, and it is also where passengers change for the diesel shuttle to Stony Point.
Many people heading to the Peninsula arrive at Frankston by train and then need to get to Mornington, Mount Martha, Rosebud, Sorrento or the hinterland. Bus connections exist, but they can be slow or infrequent, especially at night and on weekends, and they are hard work with luggage or a wheelchair. Late at night, waiting for a bus after a train trip can be uncomfortable, and many passengers prefer to have a taxi booked and waiting. Others arrive with luggage after flying into Melbourne, or with a wheelchair or mobility aid, and need a vehicle that can take them directly to their door. Weekend visitors heading to the wineries or beaches also use the station as their starting point.
Taxi Peninsula picks up from Frankston Station 24 hours a day. Book ahead with your train time and the driver will meet you at the pick-up point, or call when you arrive.
