New South Wales country road linking theCastlereagh Highway at Ilford to the regional highway hub of Bathurst, where several roads including theGreat Western Highway ,Mid-Western Highway andMitchell Highway s andO'Connell Road to Oberon join. The road is designated as Main Road 54 but the road signs do not generally show this number.It is fully sealed over its entire length, but many road maps still show sections of it as unsealed.
The historic town of Sofala is just off the road, while the road passes through Wattle Flat and Peel.
In conjunction with the
Bylong Valley Way from the Castlereagh Highway near Ilford to theGolden Highway near Sandy Hollow, this very quiet and scenic route provides a leisurely alternative to going throughSydney to travel between theHunter Valley and Bathurst.List of towns on the Bathurst to Ilford Road
