Administration
Summary
Road management between the RTA and councils in NSW provides for three categories of road: State, Regional and Local. Refer to file ‘NSW Road Management Arrangements’ for more details.
Road ClassificationLegal ClassThe Roads Act 1993 provides for roads to be classified as Freeways, Controlled Access Roads, Tollways, State Highways, Main Roads, Secondary Roads, Tourist Roads, Transitways and State Works. The classification of a road empowers the RTA to exercise broad authority over some, or all, aspects of legally classified roads and to provide financial assistance to councils.
Administrative ClassTo simplify administration of the various legal road classes, the roads in which the RTA has an interest and council roads are grouped into a three tier administrative classification system of State, Regional and Local Roads.
The schedule of roads classified under the Roads Act 1993 and of State and Regional Roads is available below.
Inquiries regarding the classification of roads can be directed to the relevant RTA Regional Office:
