 List of highways in New South Wales - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The present highway network in New South Wales was established in August 1928 when the Country Roads Board (the predecessor of the Department of Main Roads and the Roads and Traffic Authority) superseded the 1924 main road classifications and established the basis of the existing NSW main road system.
Since 1954 most NSW highways have carried a national route number, but these are not generally known or used, with the exception of Highway 1, which is assigned to the highways which follow the Australian mainland coast, and route 31 (the Hume Highway), which connects Sydney and Melbourne.
The major interstate highways in Australia have been designated as part of the National Highway network, which means that the national government funds their maintenance and upgrading, whilst the states undertake the actual work.
