Goldfields Highway is a generally northwest–southeast highway in central Western Australia which links the Great Northern HighwayatMeekatharra with Coolgardie-Esperance Highway south of Kalgoorlie.[1] The highway is approximately 797 kilometres (495 mi) in length, and is designated as Alternate National Route 94 from KalgoorlietoCoolgardie–Esperance Highway.
A large 180-kilometre (110 mi) section of the highway, from Meekatharra to Wiluna, is not a sealed road as of 2016[update]. A project to upgrade Goldfields Highway by sealing this portion, over a three-year period, was scheduled to start in the 2017/18 financial year with $60 million of funding through Royalties for Regions.[2][3] As of 2020, a small 5-kilometre-long (3 mi) section is being sealed.[4]
