public road is a roadway that has been gazetted or zoned or possibly simply land used or prepared as a road ...
from the nrm&e web site (Queensland Govt)
<http://www.nrme.qld.gov.au/factsheets/pdf/land/LM1 0w.pdf>
The Land Act 1994 gives the meaning of road as:
an area of land, whether surveyed or unsurveyed -
(a) dedicated, or notified or declared to be a road for
public use; or
(b) taken under an Act for the purpose of a road for
public use. An example of this is a road taken under
the Acquisition of Land Act 1967 (Qld) and Transport
Infrastructure Act 1994 (Qld).
<big snip>
In Queensland, roads can also be established at
common law, although this method has been
abolished by legislation in certain other states. The
method requires the fulfilment of two conditions:
• an intention by the owner to dedicate the land as
a public road and
• an acceptance by the public of the dedication,
(meaning the use of that land by the public).
(It is to avoid satisfying the first of these conditions
that owners of land used by the public for traffic often
close the road for one day a year)
Tassie is likely to be slightly different, but across the country, land use laws are similar.
