As the first freeway in South Australia — and still the longest — it is frequently referred to by South Australians simply as "The Freeway".
Prior to the construction of the freeway, all inbound and outbound road traffic to south-eastern South Australia and to Victoria had to travel on a two-lane highway originally built in the early part of the 20th century.
The southeastern end of the freeway terminates near Murray Bridge, at the Swanport Bridge, a two-lane 1km long bridge over the River Murray, where it joins the Princes Highway, a dual-carriageway highway to Tailem Bend.
