The Northern Highway is a trunk road in the north of the Australian state of Victoria . It connects the Cobb Highway in Moama and Echuca with the Hume Freeway south of Wallan . Together with the McIvor Highway , it represents the most important connection between Melbourne and Bendigo .
course
From the border between Victoria and New South Wales on the Murray River at Moama and Echuca, it runs south up the Campaspe River via Rochester to Elmore . There it meets the Midland Highway (A300) and accompanies it about 1.5 km to the east. It then turns south again and takes the McIvor Highway (B280) coming from the northwest at Heathcote .
At the same time the Northern Highway swings to the south-southeast and leads to Kilmore on the crest of the Great Dividing Range and from there directly to the south until it reaches the Hume Freeway (NM31) about 4 km south of Wallan . The last 22 km of this route used to belong to the Hume Highway before it was replaced by the freeway.
meaning
The Northern Highway is an important transportation route from the agricultural areas of northern Victoria and the Riverina to the port and airport in Melbourne. There are also some tourist attractions along the route, such as B. Heathcote-Graytown National Park .
