WELCOME TO

MELBOURNE

  • Melbourne is a bustling little gem located 72 miles away from busier Orlando. Since joining with Eau Gallie in 1969, together we have grown! Here are some of our areas most traveled roads by our local drivers and visitors to our beautiful communities as well:
    Melbourne accounts for about 300 miles (480 km) of road. The City’s plan is to resurface 5% (15 miles (24 km)) of that each year to accommodate our growing traffic use.
    Roads in the older part of the city, in what is today the southeast, are situated toward the north–south road, Babcock Street, with compass directions measured east and west from there. In the same area, a very minor east–west road, Brevard Drive, separates compass directions both north and south.
     U.S. 1 – Known officially as Harbor City Boulevard, this road runs parallel to the Indian River on the far eastern side of our city. The highway is six total lanes throughout the city.
