The Outback Highway or Outback Way is a series of roads and dirt tracks linking Laverton, Western Australia and Winton, Queensland. At 2,719 km (1,690 mi), it crosses Central Australia (colloquially known as the Outback), passing through Western Australia, the Northern Territory and Queensland.
Proposed upgrade
It has been proposed as a development to provide an inland route between southern Western Australia and northern Queensland as an alternative to the National Highway 1 along either coast.
Roads that make up the highway are:
Great Central Road
Gunbarrel Highway
Lasseter Highway
Stuart Highway
Plenty Highway
Donohue Highway
Kennedy Development Road
Support for the project is strong amongst local government areas along the route and elsewhere. The project has secured over $400 million in funding; 80% Federal funding and 20% from the Western Australia, Northern Territory, and Queensland governments. As at June 2021 there is 1200km to seal.
