stuart highway speed limit 2023 Page 9

The Stuart Highway in 2023 isn’t the wild west anymore—no derestricted sections, so save the heroics for the Playstation.

In the Northern Territory the maximum posted limit on open stretches is 130 km/h, dropping to 110/100/80 km/h near towns, roadhouses, or roadworks.

Cross into South Australia and you’re generally capped at 110 km/h, with lower limits wherever the signs say so.

Bottom line: whatever’s on the pole rules; conditions and coppers don’t care about your cruise control.
