Old Eyre Highway (original) (raw)
Old Eyre Highway is a remnant part of the Eyre Highway that was abandoned in the construction of a route closer to the coast of the Great Australian Bight. It had been known as the East West Road and briefly in the 1940s as Forrest Highway. Portions of the old route now exist in a range of protected areas, Aboriginal lands, and National Parks and reserves on the South Australian side. Permits to access are required from Yalata, as well as SA National Parks for camping and access. The route can be seen in most online maps as being between Yalata, South Australia and Eucla, Western Australia.

dbo:abstract | Old Eyre Highway is a remnant part of the Eyre Highway that was abandoned in the construction of a route closer to the coast of the Great Australian Bight. It had been known as the East West Road and briefly in the 1940s as Forrest Highway. Portions of the old route now exist in a range of protected areas, Aboriginal lands, and National Parks and reserves on the South Australian side. Permits to access are required from Yalata, as well as SA National Parks for camping and access. The sandy track and numerous cattle grids were experienced by traffic well into the late 1970s when the SA route was sealed and moved south. The route can be seen in most online maps as being between Yalata, South Australia and Eucla, Western Australia. (en) |
