No, I'm not say I can't decide. I'm say that there is no basis that I can
see for anyone to make such a decision.
An actual connected route along roads on the ground in this instance either
doesn't exist or cannot be determined from any verifiable source.
OSM requires verifiability<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Verifiability>,
for reasons I consider apparent. A route relation requires that there be an
actual, connected route.
On both these points, this isn't appropriate for a route relation.
Princes Highway is part of route 1.

This isn't helpful. National Route 1 and the Princes Hwy diverge at many
points. National Route 1 follows the Southern Freeway south from Sydney for
a start.
