Direction	West-East
From	Picton
via	Hume Freeway, Wilton, New South Wales
To	Mount Ousley Road / Southern Freeway

Picton Road is a New South Wales highway linking Picton and Wollongong. It provides an important link between the Hume and Southern freeways. From Picton, the highway runs in the southeastern direction, crosses the Hume Highway and continues over grass-forested ranges east of Wilton (passing through Sydney Water Catchment areas) until it meets Mount Ousley Road (Southern Freeway) which leads to Wollongong or Helensburgh.

The road has had quite a notorious history of being one of the worst major highways, with fatalities between Mount Ousley and Picton often attributed to driver error.
