Bass Highway, Victoria
|
The Bass Highway is a highway in Victoria, Australia and branches off the South Gippsland Highway at the township of Lang Lang. It runs south, along the eastern shore of Western Port Bay to Anderson where a road turns west toward Phillip Island. The Bass Highway continues easterly to Wonthaggi and Inverloch, then turns north-easterly to rejoin the South Gippsland Highway at Leongatha. It is assigned state route number 420 until the Phillip Island turn-off, then becomes 460. Route 460 continues on as the Strzelecki Highway at Leongatha. It was named due to its proximity to Bass Strait.
