dbo:abstract
  • Der Landsborough Highway ist eine Hauptfernverkehrsstraße im Westen des australischen Bundesstaates Queensland. Die Straße ist 1.030 km lang und verläuft von Cloncurry im äußersten Nordwesten Queenslands in südöstlicher Richtung nach , einer Kleinstadt etwa 660 km westlich der Hauptstadt Brisbane. Sie ist nach dem schottischen Forscher William Landsborough benannt, der im 19. Jahrhundert weite Teile des umgebenden Gebietes erforschte. Der Landsborough Highway ist ein wichtiger Teil des australischen Highway-Systems, da er Teil der Verbindung zwischen Brisbane und Darwin ist. Der Landsborough Highway ist auch als Matilda Highway bekannt, benannt nach dem berühmten australischen Lied Waltzing Matilda. Der Highway ist durchgehend asphaltiert, abseits von größeren Ortschaften jedoch oft nur einspurig in der Mitte der Fahrbahn. Dies macht bei der Begegnung von mehrspurigen Fahrzeugen ein Ausweichen auf den unbefestigten Seitenstreifen erforderlich. (de)
  • Landsborough Highway is a highway in western Queensland, Australia, running in the northwest–southeast direction from Morven to Cloncurry. The Landsborough Highway runs through vast tracts of land that was once occupied by William Landsborough, an Australian explorer of the 19th century. It is also the central part of the tourist route known as the Matilda Way after the popular Australian song Waltzing Matilda, which extends from Bourke in central northern New South Wales to Karumba on the Gulf of Carpentaria. The entire highway is an important part of the National Highway system linking Darwin and Brisbane: formerly National Route 66 (Cloncurry to Barcaldine) and National Route 71 (Barcaldine to Augathella), Queensland began to convert to the alphanumeric system much of Australia had adopted in the early-2000s and is now designated as National Route A2. Its importance also stems from the fact that it is the only sealed link between Flinders Highway and Capricorn Highway apart from Gregory Development Road between Emerald and Charters Towers. The highway services an important sheep and cattle grazing region, tourist traffic and local properties. The highway is fully sealed but with many sections of substandard width and quality. It is also flood-prone with lengthy closures during floods. (en)
