This is the servo/KFC we will meet at
https://www.google.com/maps/place/Un...1d2356fe?hl=en Coming from the Domain tunnel, you will need to take the exit for the Airport but stick to the right lane and head on to Todd Rd/Servo at the Bolte bridge on-ramp. Last edited by MAD; 16-10-2014 at 05:04 PM. |

Don't suppose anyone can tell me where the Corio Bay Roadhouse actually is? I drove past where my phone said it is and all I can see is the Ford plant? Or is it there somewhere?
