AUS5 – NATIONAL ROAD NETWORK• Roads is now the second largest sector of engineering construction (behindmining), but was the largest sector for almost all of the last 35 years.

• The Australian road network covers more than 817,000 kilometres.

• Approximate 657,000 kilometres are controlled by local government

• State-controlled roads account for about three quarters of all vehicle kilometres travelled.

• There are more than 37,000 road bridges across Australia.

• 75% of all passenger kilometres travelled in Australia occur on roads.

• Public transport is a major user of our road network. In Melbourne, for example, more than 80 per cent of all public transport kilometres are travelled on roads.
