EastLink is the 39km motorway in Melbourne’s east, connecting the Eastern, Monash, Frankston and Peninsula Link freeways.
In the future, EastLink will connect with the Tullamarine Fwy to Melbourne Airport and the west via the upgraded Eastern Fwy and the new East West Link (construction expected to commence in 2014).
EastLink is the safest motorway in Melbourne. It’s quick, bypassing more than 45 traffic lights, and well sign-posted with 17 interchanges.
There are two BP service centres on EastLink, with large shops, cafés, KFC and McDonald’s restaurants. The recently opened Oliver’s Real Food is at the BP service centre on EastLink southbound.
