Roads in Australia - Road Naming

Road Naming

Each state has independent systems for the naming of roads. Roads in New South Wales are named in accordance with section 162 of The Roads Act 1993. Australian Standards AS 1742.5 - 1986 and AS 4212 - 1994 provide a list of road suffixes (such as Alley, Circle, Mall, Street) which are routinely accepted by the Geographical Names Board.

Famous quotes containing the words road and/or naming:

    Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens.
    —J.R.R. (John Ronald Revel)

    And what goes on in it, the naming of the wind,
    Our notes to each other, always repeated, always the same.
