On March 17, 2026, EastLink reduced energy use by 70% in its 10-year-old freeway tunnels, which run beneath the environmentally sensitive Mullum Mullum Valley. The company implemented IoT and EcoStruxure technology to specifically address the ventilation of vehicle emissions in the area. Previously, on December 7, 2025, EastLink's 2025 Self-Driving & Electric Car Survey, which polled over 5,700 participants, found that 51% of Australian motorists included hybrid powertrains in their next-car preferences, a figure unchanged from the prior year and significantly surpassing other options, indicating growing hybrid confidence while caution persisted for fully electric and self-driving technology. Earlier, on October 30, 2025, EastLink returned as a Gold Sponsor for the 2025 Monash Carols by Candlelight, continuing its longstanding support for the community event.
