M1 Princes Hwy/Fwy East
Former Alignment: Berwick to Beaconsfield
The Princes Highway bypassed Berwick and Beaconsfield on 14 December
1983 when the Princes Freeway (Berwick Section) was opened to traffic.
The old highway remained shown as “Princes Highway” in Melway street
directories for a number of years - edition 27 shows now ‘Old Princes
Hwy’. However, Vicroads have officially redeclared the old highway as
“Berwick-Beaconsfield Road” and it is known locally as High Street. The
route is numbered C101.
