	New England (Australia) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		New England is the name given to a region in the north of the state of New South Wales, Australia.
		At its narrowest, New England may be defined as the area of the New England Ranges, running south from the Queensland border to about Quirindi, and including neither the coastal regions of northern New South Wales nor the Western Slopes region west of the line Inverell-Gunnedah.
		The Oxley Highway, Gwydir Highway, and Bruxner Highway traverse the New England Region from west to east.

	New England Highway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The New England Highway is part of the National Highway network, which means that the federal government, not the New South Wales state government, pays for their maintenance and development.
		As these rich farm and pastorial lands are settled earlier than the NSW's North Coast, the New England Highway provides an all weather sealed highway link between NSW and Queensland by the first half of the 20th century.
		The New England Highway commences at its junction with the Pacific Highway at Hexham, a few kilometers inland from Newcastle.

	New England Highway
		When some of the highways in Australia were designated as national highways in the 1970s, the New England Highway was considered to be the most suitable route to be the main highway linking New South Wales and Queensland.
		However, due to increasing population and development in the North Coast region of New South Wales, it is the coastal Pacific Highway which is being upgraded to four-lane motorway standards while the inland New England Highway languishes.
		Thus, the New England Highway is the fastest route from Sydney to Brisbane as it avoids busy coastal towns and hence interstate freight traffic is heavy.

	Connecticut New England Interstates
		In 1922, a consistent numbering system was established for major roads across New England, intended as a more usable replacement to the previous system: color-coded bands on telegraph poles.
		Highway commissioners, hotel associations and members of the Automobile Club of America worked on a solution for this, culminating in an early April 1922 conference in New York announcing a proposed uniform numbering system for the entire United States.
		At the time of the conference, New England highway departments had already adopted the system, with Connecticut already painting signs for Route 1.

		At the moment a substantial overpass is being constructed at that intersection to obviate the need for traffic lights and the attendant stopping and starting of semitrailers and other heavy vehicles at all hours of the day and night that have caused considerable distress to my constituents at Beresfield.
		The exit lanes from the overpass join the highway adjacent to a number of streets and the consequent noise will impact on those streets quite severely and adversely.
		The general expectation is that some action will be undertaken to reduce the level of sound both on the down ramp of the overpass and also in the vicinity of the streets I have named in the suburb of Tarro.
