Page "Outback" Paragraph 53

The Stuart Highway runs from north to south through the centre of the continent, roughly paralleled by the Adelaide-Darwin railway.

There is a proposal to develop some of the roads running from the SW to the NE to create an all-weather road named the Outback Highway, crossing the continent diagonally from Laverton, Western Australia ( north of Kalgoorlie, through the Northern Territory to Winton, in Queensland.
