The A38 is a route designation of a major metropolitan arterial route through suburban Sydney, linking M2 Hills Motorway in North Ryde and Pittwater Road (A8) in Dee Why. This name covers a few consecutive roads and is widely known to most drivers, but the entire allocation is also known – and signposted – by the names of its constituent parts: Delhi Road, Millwood Avenue, Fullers Road, Pacific Highway, Boundary Street, Babbage Road and Warringah Road.[3]

The A38 also has some notable bridges: Fullers Bridge (built in 1938) and Roseville Bridge (a newer bridge which replaced an older one in 1966).
