The Roads and Traffic Authority of NSW (RTA) and the Summerland Way Promotional Committee have developed this self-guided heritage tour. It supports the National Trust Heritage Festival for 2006 with the theme “Industrial Heritage – Our Working Lives”.

The tour features the history of the Summerland Way indicating heritage and industrial landmarks, and visits key historic river crossings between Brisbane and Coffs Harbour. It provides a ‘shorter, scenic alternative’ to the Pacific Highway.

Roads and bridges noted in this guide are used for traffic. You should only view them from safe locations.
