Retrieved on 14 September 2013.〕 in western Victoria, Australia (state route B140) runs from the Princes Highway in Geelong west to the town of Hamilton through the towns of Inverleigh, Cressy, Lismore, Derrinallum, Darlington, Mortlake, and Penshurst. The Geelong end of the highway was once routed along Hyland Street Fyansford, until the construction of Deviation Road between 1931-32 with unemployment labour during the Great Depression. Opened in 1933, it was cut into the hillside, the surface was originally of concrete construction. The road opened 54 years after the first petition by Fyansford residents for such a road.〔John, McNeil (1990) ''A Journey to Destiny 1890-1990 100 Years of Cement Manufacturing at Fyansford by Australian Cement Limited''〕 In Hamilton, the Glenelg Highway continues across the South Australian border to Mount Gambier rendering the Hamilton Highway a popular alternative route for the Melbourne to Mount Gambier trip (being roughly 50 km shorter than a trip down Highway 1). ==Major Intersections and Towns== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hamilton Highway」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
