When completed, Peninsula Link will provide a freeway from the Eastlink / Frankston Freeway interchange, through Carrum Downs and then south to link with the Mornington Peninsula Freeway at Mount Martha.

This section commences at the large bend in the middle of the northern section where the freeway's name officially changes, and will divert traffic around the east side of Frankston through Langwarrin, Baxter and Moorooduc before once again joining the current southern section's northern terminus at Moorooduc Highway.
