The Todd River is an ephemeral river in the southern Northern Territory , central Australia . The origins of the Todd River begin in the MacDonnell Ranges , where it flows past the Telegraph Station, almost through the center of Alice Springs. Its principal tributaries are the Trafina and Giles creeks. Surveyors for the Overland Telegraph Line named it in 1870 for Sir Charles Heavitree Todd, then postmaster general of South Australia.
