How to Get There

From Launceston Centre - Be aware that many of the CBD streets are one way. Locate St Johns Street (basically running North-South) which is two way. Travel about 1 km from the city centre (Myer / Brisbane St Mall corner) in a southerly direction along this to the junction at its southern end. The church is the red brick building on the left, at the very end of the street on the corner of St John and Frankland Streets.
From North of Launceston - Entry will be either via the East or West Tamar Highways. The West Tamar Hwy leads onto Brisbane St. If entering this way, turn right into Wellington St at the Brisbane - Wellington St intersection (sign posted "Hobart, Burnie"). The East Tamar Hwy leads into Wellington St. If entering this way, continue along Wellington St in the left lane. About 0.9 km from the Brisbane - Wellington St intersection, turn left into a small side street called Frankland St. Continue for about half a kilometre to the junction with St John Street. The last 250 metre or so is a narrow lane. The church is the red brick building on the left.
From South of Launceston - Entry will be via the Southern Outlet. The final approach is down a long hill overlooking the city in the valley. At the bottom of the hill merge into the right lane when safe to do so. At the first set of traffic lights (soon after passing the 80 kph speed signs), turn right into Howick St. Cross the next traffic light controlled intersection. Turn left into Charles St at the next junction on the left (marked with blue "Emergency" signs). At the next intersection, turn right into Frankland St. This becomes a narrow lane. About 250 metres after turning onto Frankland St, the church is the red brick building on the left on the corner of St John and Frankland Streets. The distance to the church is about 1 km after turning off the Southern Outlet into Howick St.
From East of Launceston - Entry into Launceston will normally be via the Tasman Hwy. Follow the signs to the centre of Launceston. Locate St John Street, and follow the directions above from the centre of Launceston. Alternatively at the end of the long, gentle, sweeping left bend where Elphin Rd merges into Brisbane St (opposite east end of City Park), exit via the sharp left switch back marked "To High St". Continue along High St, turning right into Balfour St, then left into St John Street.
From West of Launceston - Generally the approach to Launceston from the west will be via the Bass Highway. Follow this to the end, taking the exit marked "Launceston" onto the Southern Outlet going into the city. Follow the directions above for entry from south of the city.
