Key Takeaways
- Death Stranding 2 features five highway systems with 53 Auto-Pavers total.
- Building roads is tied to story progression, especially in Episode 8.
- Strategic road building greatly improves traversal and delivery efficiency.
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach greatly expands on the original game’s iconic road-building system. This time, players can traverse the entire continent of Australia—if they’re dedicated enough to build the roads that connect it all. Utilizing Auto-Paver machines, players can invest dozens of hours constructing routes critical for efficient deliveries. Here’s where you can find every Auto-Paver in the game
AUS-HIGHWAY-01: From West Fort Knot to F5 East Distribution Center
Located in the southwestern corner of the map, AUS-HIGHWAY-01 is a key early-game stretch of road with 11 Auto-Pavers. This highway starts at the southeastern edge of West Fort Knot and runs east to the F5 East Distribution Center. However, full access is delayed until late in Episode 8, when a major battle unlocks the Chiral Network on a small disconnected patch of land. Auto-Pavers 01-09 and 01-10 are particularly affected by this progression gate

AUS-HIGHWAY-02: A Northeastern Loop
The second highway system spans northeastern Australia. AUS-HIGHWAY-02 also includes 11 Auto-Pavers and begins near the northeast edge of West Fort Knot. It continues north to the F2 South Distribution Center, then loops back to the Northern Environmental Observatory. This highway is essential for establishing a stable delivery loop in the upper regions of the map.
AUS-HIGHWAY-03 & 04: Central Spine and Branch
AUS-HIGHWAY-03 is the longest road in the game, stretching across central Australia. It consists of 14 Auto-Pavers, beginning near the F2 South Distribution Center and passing landmarks like the Twin Valley Mine, Data Scientist, and Savanna Mine, ending at East Fort Knot.
Branching off from this is AUS-HIGHWAY-04, the shortest segment in the game. With only 5 Auto-Pavers, it starts at Auto-Paver 03-08 and heads northeast to the Northeastern Mine.
AUS-HIGHWAY-05: The Final Stretch
The last stretch, AUS-HIGHWAY-05, takes players along the southeastern coast of Australia. Starting behind East Fort Knot, this 12-Auto-Paver route curves along the coast before cutting inland toward the mountains. This highway plays a pivotal role in the final chapters of Sam’s journey.
