Bruce Highway (NH-A1) (Townsville to Cairns)
This page looks at the Bruce highway from Townsville to Cairns.
The Bruce Highway is the major coastal highway of Queensland.
Running from the outskirts of state capital, Brisbane,
to Cairns in Far North Queensland, the route is a part
of the Australian National Highway.
The highway initially joined all the major coastal
centres, however a number of bypasses, particularly
in the south, have diverted traffic around these cities
in order to expedite traffic flow and ease urban congestion.
In the south the Bruce Highway begins at the bridge
over the Pine River near Bald Hills, on Brisbane's northern
outskirts and is classified as the M1 Motorway from
Bald Hills to Cooroy, see
this section for its continuation.
Major towns and cities along the route include Maryborough,
Rockhampton, Mackay and Townsville.
