Road Segment Data from Data.NSW

There have been a number of requests for "State Roads" data. This data is currently available via the Data.NSW Spatial Collaboration Portal. To access Road Segment Data please follow the instructions below;

From https://portal.spatial.nsw.gov.au/ Click the Browse Data tile Click NSW Data themes tile Click the Transport icon Click the link NSW Transport Theme - Road Name Extent

Click on Export Data (highlighted above)

Do you want to select which layers to export? You can select Yes and choose from the layers provided OR you can select No Thanks. I want to export data from all layers. This will download all data sets. In the example below RoadNameExtent is selected.

Click Next >

Do you want to specify an extent? Select No or Yes, by drawing the extent on a map. If you select ‘No’ all the data will be extracted. If you wanted to specify an extent of data extraction, e.g. around Sydney in the screenshot below, use the square icon labelled ‘Draw a rectangle’. This will draw a square centred on the point where you clicked on the map. You can change the shape from the icon labelled ‘Reshape’ to get the required area of extraction.

Select your preferred Export datum: Please note the current preference of GDA2020, although that depends on your objective.

Select your preferred Export coordinate system: ‘Geographic’ will export the geometries in latitude/longitude. MGAxx coordinate systems will export the geometries in metres.
