The Highway One Travel Companion: 4: Port Macquarie to QLD Border by David Taylor on Apple Books

Highway One grew out of a highly variable collection of local, regional and State roads. Over time, the growing need for a rational system for the construction and maintenance of efficient and safe arterial highways across State borders led to increasing Federal Government involvement. Highway One was born in out of this already-existing network of State roads and became National Route 1 in the then-new National Route system.

Like pearls on a necklace, the length of Highway One is studded with pretty and uniquely Australian small towns, but huge sections of the old road have been bypassed and nearly forgotten over the decades.

Old Highway One still lives on and we can revisit the old places of yesteryear. With their unique "red route" navigation system, these books have been tailored to the needs of "grey nomads", backpackers, caravanning and camping enthusiasts, motoring clubs, tourists, holidaymakers and any other travellers looking to do more than simply get from A to B around Australia.

The "Gootchie" former and abandoned Old Highway One alignments is a rewarding and complex set of old alignment ghosts, traces and fragments to explore, although many of the abandoned fragments are on private property. This old concrete road section is so durable that although it has been decades since this road carried traffic it would still be drivable; it just needs the grass to be mown - it even has the centre line still visible in places! Molteno Rd is in good condition and driveable right through to the road closure at about 1.
