New South Wales Travel & Transport

Travel in New South Wales is a breeze. There is a very comprehensive train network linking to all major coastal and inland towns.

Transport Infoline provides comprehensive details and timetables for all the transport services covering the Sydney metropolitan and surrounding areas. Don't forget you will need to arrange for Sydney airport transfers

Daily air services operate to all major towns throughout New South Wales. The Pacific Highway is a coastal route that links Sydney and Brisbane and all intermediate coastal towns. The New England Highway is an inland route between the same two cities.

The coastal route south to Melbourne is the Princes Highway and the more direct inland route through the southern part of the state is the Hume Highway.

The Mitchell Highway services the central and north-western regions of New South Wales and the Sturt Highway is a major route through the south west. Overall the state is well served by a comprehensive network of major arterial and linking roads.

Several bus transport companies travel throughout New South Wales. The major car rental companies are all represented in the major cities and towns throughout the state.  Some unsealed roads in remote areas will need 4 wheel drive vehicles, especially if travelling in the wet season.

Australian camper and motorhome rentals are a great way to see the real Australia, with pick-up and return usually in the capital cities or major towns. Advance bookings are recommended. Tour operators provide itineraries that cover all popular sites.

If you have a self drive NSW holiday in mind, you will find plenty of opportunities for car hire. If you are arriving at Sydney, then it makes good sense to check out the available Sydney car rentals for all the available suppliers, makes, models and best available prices.

Driver information and maps are available from the NRMA which has offices throughout the state.

Some typical road distances are:

Sydney to Brisbane = 980km (612 miles)

Sydney to Melbourne = 875km (545 miles)

Sydney to Canberra = 290km (180 miles)

Sydney to Broken Hill= 1160km (725 miles)

Sydney to Dubbo = 405km (253 miles)

Sydney to Bourke = 775km (485 miles)
