In Tasmania, the maximum speed limit on gravel roads is 80 km/h, unless a different speed limit is signposted.
However, gravel roads can be more dangerous than sealed roads as they are more affected by weather and changing conditions, so it’s not always safe to drive at the full 80 km/h.
Drivers should always adjust their speed to suit the road conditions.
If you see a problem on a state road, please call the State Roads Hotline on 1300 139 933. This service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, all year round.
All reports are logged and sent to the maintenance team.
If the issue is urgent or a safety hazard, a contractor will be sent out immediately to make the area safe.
