National Route 42 (
Cunningham Highway (Goondiwindi to Warwick))

The Cunningham Highway (NH-A15) starts 6km east of Ipswich at the junction of the Ipswich Motorway (Metroad 2) and the Warrego Highway (NH-A2). It's named after the explorer and botanist Allan Cunningham who followed a route close to where the modern day highway runs.

It runs southwesterly from Brisbane until it terminates at Goondiwindi. It is National Highway A-15 until Warwick where it then becomes NR42.

Just west of Ipswich, the highway goes over the mountain pass of Cunningham's Gap.

Towns along the route include: Ipswich, Aratula, Warwick, Inglewood, Yelarbon and Goondiwindi.
