So You Took a Toll Trip on CityLink...Uh Oh, or Uh-mazing?
Let's face it, Melbourne's CityLink is a bit of a love-hate relationship. On the one hand, it gets you places faster.

Facing the CityLink Bill: Don't Panic! (But Maybe Pay Quickly)
Here's the deal: If you didn't have a pre-paid account or a fancy e-tag thingy, you'll get a bill in the mail. Now, unlike that gym membership you never use, CityLink isn't a fan of delayed payments.
