when the Northern Distributor was built in Wollongong, it carved
through a number of streets.
I think Cross Street Corrimal has a number of pieces now unconnected.

For numbering absurdity - the Sturt Highway wins.
Numbers out of Adelaide increase to about 231000 after Paringa. We took
photos at about 217000.
In Vic I didn't note a house number from the driver's seat.
At Gol Gol the numbers are about 8000 and decrease until Euston, except
in each town they start again at 1 and 2 for each side of the road.
No numbers Euston to Balranald, Hay and Darlington Point.
Houses in Balranald and Hay are numbered
