Anzac Highway is an 8.7-kilometre-long (5.4 mi) main arterial road heading southwest from the city of Adelaide, the capital of South Australia, to the beachside suburb of Glenelg.

[6] Beginning at the intersection with South Terrace, West Terrace and Goodwood Road on the Adelaide city centre's south-western corner, Anzac Highway heads southwest through the Adelaide Park Lands, through Plympton, before turning west through Camden Park and terminates at the bayside suburb of Glenelg.

[8] On 18 September 1918, a tram line opened from Sturt Street in the city, via West Terrace and then down the Bay Road to Keswick.

After redevelopment of Anzac Highway in the 1930s, the tram line was truncated at the new Keswick Road Bridge in March 1939, at a stop known as Wayville West.

[citation needed] Anzac Highway is mentioned in the song "One More Boring Night in Adelaide" by Redgum, on their 1978 album If You Don't Fight You Lose.
