Major Perth Junctions
The Perth section of the highway discussed in this section runs from The Causeway interchange in Victoria Park to the intersection with Horace Street/Farrall Road in Midvale. The highway then runs through the outer, less urbanised suburbs of Perth, and leaves urban Perth after passing through Mundaring, 35 kilometres (22 mi) north east of the Perth CBD by road. It does not technically leave Perth until shortly after reaching the Great Southern Highway junction, 48 kilometres (30 mi) north east of the Perth CBD by road.

Famous quotes containing the words major and/or perth:
“Give me the keys. I feel for the common chord again,
Sliding by semi-tones till I sink to a minor,—yes,
And I blunt it into a ninth, and I stand on alien ground,
Surveying a while the heights I rolled from into the deep;
Which, hark, I have dared and done, for my resting-place is found,
The C Major of this life: so, now I will try to sleep.”
—Robert Browning (1812–1889)
“To motorists bound to or from the Jersey shore, Perth Amboy consists of five traffic lights that sometimes tie up week-end traffic for miles. While cars creep along or come to a prolonged halt, drivers lean out to discuss with each other this red menace to freedom of the road.”
—For the State of New Jersey, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
