Employment: Employment Overview

Employment Overview

Getting to Peninsula Private Hospital has never been easier. Peninsula Link Freeway opened in early January 2013 and travel time to all major destinations has been reduced.

For example it's now 45 minutes to Melbourne CBD and less than an hour to Melbourne's International airport with no traffic lights to prolong the journey.

A short 6 minutes drive south on the freeway will take you to the Mornington exit ramp, and a further six minutes to Mount Martha and a continuation of the Mornington Peninsula Freeway to the southern Peninsula including Sorrento and Portsea.

Peninsula Private is adjacent to the largest freeway access and egress point on Cranbourne Road which further simplifies freeway travel.
