I recently drove down to Sorrento and used the new Eastlink all the way from the city.
It's a great road - and cut the drive time down (only took about an 1 hour 10 mins) but it's not cheap - think its about $12 from Doncaster to Frankston. And when you hit Frankston be prepared for delays at the traffic lights.
The road was dead - hardly any cars at all. I think I would use it again but not sure if it will end up being a white elephant like some of Sydney's tunnels.
Will you use Eastlink?

I use it all the time to get to Frankston, I have some clients out there. The artwork is very interesting as well. Come are fun, some are weird. I wouldn't use it everyday though, too expensive.

I see that Eastlink has reported a huge loss - its not hard to work out, you pay money to get stuck in a traffic jam for 2.5 kms when you reach Frankston! The traffic jam cuts any time savings made up on the journey.
