Carp Road is a rural road that runs between Fitzroy Harbour, Ontario and Stittsville, Ontario, through the village of Carp, Ontario. Carp Road is also known as Ottawa Road #5 and is long. The road begins in Fitzroy Harbour at Galetta Side Road and in Stittsville road ends at Stittsville Main Street. Along most of the route is rural with the exception of Stittsville where the road travels in a residential development. Ottawa Regional Road 5 then becomes Stittsville Main Street for about 5 km through Stittsville, and then continues south of Stittsville as Huntley Road (Ottawa) toward the town of Richmond. A curious artifact of pre-amalgamation Ottawa is the inconsistent numbering of addresses on Carp Road, divided at the intersection of Rothbourne Road, the boundary of the former townships of Goulbourn and West Carleton: Addresses begin at 1000 and run south toward Stittsville in Goulbourn, but begin at 2000 and run north toward Fitzroy Harbour in West Carleton. Among the more famous landmarks along the road are: * Carp Road Landfill run by Waste Management - 142 hectare facility with a 35 hectares landfill site〔http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/story/2010/04/13/ottawa-carp-landfill.html〕 * Carp Fair - home to annual fall fair since 1863〔http://www.carpfair.ca/〕 * Irish Hills Golf and Country Club - a 9 and 18 hole course with banquet facilities〔http://www.irishhillsgolf.com/2012/layout.html〕 * Carp Airport - former military airfield (WWII British Commonwealth Air Training Plan field) and now private general aviation facility * Diefenbunker former bomb shelter from the 1950s (closed 1994) and now Cold War museum ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carp Road」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
