Oakleigh South is serviced by Huntingdale railway station.
As part of the Dingley Arterial Project, Old Dandenong Road was connected to South Road, thereby linking suburbs west of Oakleigh South along South Road (such as Bentleigh, Moorabbin, and Brighton) with suburbs to the east of Oakleigh South along Old Dandenong Road (such as Heatherton and Dingley Village).
