In 1814, William Cox, an extraordinary engineer, assembled
a team of thirty convicts and eight guards to build a
road across the Blue Mountains. Starting at Emu Plains
on the 18th July 1814, in just four months the team had
completed a road covering a distance of forty-seven miles
to Mount York. In just six months, Cox had crossed the
Blue Mountains with a road of 101 miles all the way to
Bathurst (The Bathurst Road). |
