∙ 9y agoThere are many paved roads in Australia that cross the outback. The outback is an undefined region which covers most of the Australian mainland, and there are major bituminised highways Criss-crossing it.However, the only completely paved single road that crosses from east to west is the Eyre Highway, which crosses the Nullarbor Plain from South Australia to Western Australia, essentially following the route of explorer Edward Eyre who was first to travel overland from east to west, doing so under horrendous circumstances in 1840-41.
