List of highways in Western Australia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Western Australia's population is mainly concentrated in the south west. Even then, outside of Perth the population is relatively sparse when compared to rural areas of the eastern states. Most of the highways are found here. In many cases, roads away from cities can be known as country roads before the specific designations of highways or state routes. -
In Australia, the term freeway describes a particular type of highway. A freeway is generally multi-laned, has no intersections and on-ramp and off-ramp access provided.
