Used the Eastlink to get to work instead of the Monash (thus saving me about $5 in tolls or about $140 over the next 4 weeks. :p)

Not bad but typical Government in not fixing or having a solution once you hit Hoddle Street.

23 minutes from Waverley Park to Hoddle Street.

Such a great shame WP still not operational as an AFL ground, would be brilliant for anyone living north of the city.

The one great advantage for me is the traffic has disappeared on Stud Road!

Yer, I'm planning on using it this week, but as you say the Punt Rd end of the Eastern is pretty bad, I suppose this free soon to be toll way would only make that part worse.

Used it today, but not sure if I will always use it, $5 one way, might not be worth it.
