East Link - No exit

[BanHien]

This morning, I went to the Melbourne airport to pick up a friend. Rather going normal way I used Monash Fwy - Easlink - Eastern Fwy - Bell street & Tullamarine Fwy route. On the way home, I used Tullamarine - Bell - Eastern Fwy - East Link and went to the Frankston end of this new road. I made an U-turn at Stud road, back to Franskton Fwy - to East link with intending to go back to the Monash Fwy - But no exit from Easlink to Monash Fwy (to turn right). I don't know why this very big intersection has missed this turn - I had to make an U-turn at Wellington Road to be able to get back to the Monash Fwy. Today is free but you need to prepare to pay for this NO EXIT.

wow... it seems that you speak the truth!! How ridiculous is that? Surely it must be intentional... but I don't see what is gained by making people play musical chairs. An alternative might be police rd, but forget it if it's busy.

How was the ride anyway? It can't be any worse than the absolutely shocking state the Monash is in at the moment. I'm probably going to try it next week.

I did not know until going thru under the Monash Fwy. I did not check "the gate" but exit to Police Rd may save few cents (petrol and a toll (?)). By the way, my eTag "beep" all the way, hope they won't send me a bill for travelling on the opening day (well free for 4 weeks).
