| Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles
available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Princes
Highway is a segment of Australia's Highway 1 that extends from Sydney
to Port Augusta via the coast through the states of New South Wales,
Victoria and South Australia, a distance of 1941 km (along Highway 1) or
1898 km via the former alignments of the highway. (However, that route
is slower and there are many poor connections to the bypassed sections
of the original alignment). The highway follows the coastline for most
of its length although and thus takes quite an indirect and lengthy
route. By contrast, the Hume Highway (National Highway 31) from Sydney
to Melbourne at 870 km (as opposed to 1040 km on Highway 1), and the
Western and Dukes Highways (National Highway 8) from Melbourne to
Adelaide at 730 km (915 km along Highway 1) are far more direct. Because
of the rural nature and lower traffic volumes over much of its length,
the Princes Highway is a more scenic and leisurely route than the main
highways between these major cities. |
