Pacific Highway (Australia)

The Pacific Highway is a major transport route in eastern Australia and is part of Australia's Highway 1. It is about 1000 km long and links Sydney, the capital of New South Wales, to Brisbane, the capital of Queensland, along the coast.\nParts of the Pacific Highway have been upgraded to international motorway standards, while other sections remain as narrow, winding, un-divided two-lane road. Many accidents occur on the Pacific Highway. Major towns along the Pacific Highway include Gosford, Wyong, Newcastle, Taree, Port Macquarie, Kempsey, Coffs Harbour, Grafton, Ballina and Byron Bay, all in New South Wales, and Coolangatta and the Gold Coast in Queensland.\nCategory:Australian highways
