The Sunraysia Highway runs parallel to the Calder Highway,the primary route between
Melbourne and Mildura providing an alternative route via Ballarat. The highway was known as the North-Western Highway until the 1960s, when the present name was adopted.The Sunraysia Highway serves a number of important industries in the region such as agriculture, viticulture, food processing, winemaking and tourism. It forms an important link for these industries to markets and ports in the south of Victoria and South Australia.
The Sunraysia Highway, B220, is a two-lane, two-way road with mainly unsealed shoulders and no overtaking lanes provided along the highway as it is designated as a ‘B’ road for its full length.
