Reservoir (Pron-en-au|ˈRezza-Voorː) is a suburb in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Its Local Government Area is the City of Darebin. Reservoir's postcode is 3073. Reservoir is an established suburb with standard brick homes, weatherboard homes, and a high number of new developments. The region contains popular recreation areas and facilities, including Edwardes lake and the multi-millon dollar Reservoir Leisure Centre, and is home to the Edwardes Street and Broadway shopping strips.

Overview

Reservoir is only minutes away from the Northland shopping centre, Preston Market, Sydney Rd shops and restaurants and one of two remaining drive-in cinemas in Melbourne, the Village in Coburg. The area is experiencing unprecedented growth; with plenty of new develoments, it is also very popular with young home-buyers looking for a 'still affordable' inner city lifestyle.

The area is serviced by three railway stations: Reservoir, Regent and Ruthven and multiple bus lines. The West Preston tram route also ends at the south end of the suburb.

Reservoir is conveniently located 11 km north of the Melbourne CBD, with easy access to Northern/Western Ring Rd, Hume Highway/Freeway, Tullamarine & Calder Freeways and Eastern Freeway.
