The Barossa Valley Highway (also known as Barossa Valley Way) is the main road linking most of the major towns of the Barossa Valley in South Australia. It is designated as highway B19. It is 34 km long, roughly following the North Para River from the Sturt Highway at Nuriootpa through Tanunda, Rowland Flat and Lyndoch to Gawler, where it again meets the Sturt Highway (almost - the Barossa Valley Highway approaches from the East and terminates in the main street, but the Sturt Highway bypasses the town to the West).
Famous quotes containing the words valley and/or highway:
“I see before me now a traveling army halting,
Below a fertile valley spread, with barns and the orchards of summer,
Behind, the terraced sides of a mountain, abrupt, in places rising high,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“In one notable instance, where the United States Army and a hundred years of persuasion failed, a highway has succeeded. The Seminole Indians surrendered to the Tamiami Trail. From the Everglades the remnants of this race emerged, soon after the trail was built, to set up their palm-thatched villages along the road and to hoist tribal flags as a lure to passing motorists.”
—For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
