Distance by Land Transport: Land Transport

How to Use Postcode Tool

Input in the first and second 4 digit Australian postcode then click the Show button. The map will then display the location of the two postcodes and also show the routes for:

  • As the crow flies - the straight distance between the points
  • By land transport - by car and/or boat (if possible)

You will also see the distance displayed below the map for the distance as the crow flies and also by land transport. You can then type in more postcodes and click the show button to see more distances.

Note : For any postcode search there may be more than one result returned. In this case the average position will be used from all points that have the same postcode

Gosh I'd love a bulk .csv upload function to tell me the distance between one set postcode and all the postcodes in my .csv file.

Campbelltown, NSW should represent the postcode 2560. Currently, the pointer is located in Appin, NSW on the map.

Would be very handy to combine this with the Postcode Radius tool, so we can define a radius from a starting postcode and see a comparative output of distances "as the Crow Flies" versus "by Land Transport" and possibly also the approx. time-taken, for each postcode in the resulting list. The current Postcode Radius tool only outputs "Crow Flies" distances. This would be handy for users trying to determine delivery prices, which would be based on distance or approx. time-taken, rather than a generic radius. As mentioned in other comments, some examples where a Location within 100km of a starting point, actually are 170+ km "by road" which is almost double the distance/time taken to travel when compared against a crow-flies radius. All tools provided here are excellent though, so I thank you all for all your efforts.

The distance from Cairns P.O. 4870 to Cooktown P.O. 4895 as the crow flies is not 158.105 miles. Two other sources say 105 miles. The discrepancy is huge. Not helpful as a tool.

I would like get a complete list distances from FROM 1 (one) suburb in Greater Melbourne CBD to all other suburbs in the same area. I wanted this generated for all suburbs under the same conditions. Can this be done and understand it would be a huge list? Can this be downloaded as an Excel file.

By John C on 26th February 2019
