General Information:

National Route 58 is a rural highway in southern New South Wales, which traverses within a few kilometres of the Victorian border in many instances.

The route acts as a connector, joining not only several towns in the Riverina region but also major highways such as the Cobb Hwy (NR75) and the Newell Hwy (NR39).

The eastern end of the route features a spectacular truss bridge called Bethanga Bridge, which crosses Hume Weir on the Murray River.
