NATIONAL HIGHWAY 20
Sturt Hwy/Silver City Hwy intersection, Buronga

This roundabout in the town of Buronga, across the Murray from Mildura, marks the southern terminus of the un-numbered Silver City Hwy. However, signposting at this intersection shows the Silver City Hwy as NR79 which is indeed incorrect. Perhaps this is a deliberate ploy by the RTA to connect NR79 to another National Route since the Victorian leg became the A79 in 2000-01.
