Riverside Drive (Ottawa Road #19) is a major road in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada that follows along the eastern bank of the Rideau River. Its northern terminus is at the Transitway/Via Rail underpass just south of the Queensway, and the road proceeds south to Limebank Road where it continues as River Road until the city limits. North of the Queensway, Riverside continues as Vanier Parkway, which travels through Vanier until Beechwood Avenue.〔 See map 6 Urban Road Network〕 The road's name is linked to Vanier, Ontario, which was named for former Governor General of Canada Georges Vanier. Most of the road is a four-lane divided principal arterial, with a speed limit of , although the general flow is faster in many sections. Riverside is home to the Riverside Hospital, the Billings Bridge Plaza, the RA Centre, Canada Post headquarters, Public Works Canada headquarters, Canadian Labour Congress headquarters, Vincent Massey Park, Terry Fox Athletic Facility, and Mooney's Bay Park. Riverside was re-aligned between Smyth Road and Industrial Avenue in 1986. Riverside once ended at Industrial, while it was Alta Vista Drive that carried traffic across the Queensway to become the Vanier Parkway. The old alignment of Riverside Drive in Riverview continues to be known as Riverside Drive, and serves a number of apartment building complexes, and has a cul-de-sac at each end. ==Major intersections== On Vanier Parkway * Beechwood Avenue / St. Patrick Street * Montreal Road On Riverside Drive * The Queensway / Highway 417, exit 117 * Industrial Avenue / Bus Access to Hurdman Transit Station * Smyth Road / Main Street * Bank Street * Bronson Avenue * Heron Road * Walkley Road * Hunt Club Road On River Road * Limebank Road * Leitrim Road * Earl Armstrong Road (and Strandherd Drive via the Strandherd-Armstrong Bridge) * Mitch Owens Road 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「Riverside Drive (Ottawa)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
