Road from Perth to Broome - is it sealed?

Dingo - Sealed all the way for some 25 - 30 years now, Coastal and Inland options.

Dingo,

your mate has only got to look in a road atlas. It's been bitumen for many years It's called the National Hwy, Highway 1 and the Great Northern Highway. The EO site has an up to date road conditions page with all the info you'll ever need.

You can access it off the EO home page about half way down under the heading "National Road Conditions". The forum page also has access to it at the very top left hand side under "Actions". One of the tabs is labled "Roads" and will take you direct to the National Road Conditions Page.

Hope this helps.

Yep, all sealed on both main roads, and you'll be pleased to know that most towns along the way now have electricity and telegraph offices.

:-)

Hi Dingo

Well maintained bitumen highways; the inland highway is the shorter and more scenic, but lots to see along both. Your friend will be sharing these highways with large road trains, particularly on the inland highway; just in case they are not familiar to out of city travel and large mining company transport.

Just a one word answer: HEMA!!!

We aren't that bad over here in WA.

We even have white lines on them and street signs.

Apart from the white lines, they even paint white aeroplanes on the road aswell !!!

"G'day all, a friend in a soft roader is wondering if the road from Perth to Broome is sealed? "

only if you go the long way via sydney

Hi Aussiedingo

Don't wish to sound facetious my friend, but a name like "Aussiedingo" and you didn't know if the National Highway was sealed. Fair enough.

The road conditions change almost daily at this time of year. When it rains the roads can become flooded and impassable, and two days later the roads are great. You need day to day reports from the internet or phone when travelling arolund at the time of the year in the Kimberleys and Pilbara.

Cheers
