Bradley Avenue (London, Ontario)

Bradley Avenue (London, Ontario)

Bradley Avenue is an east-west arterial road in London, Ontario, Canada.

History

Compared to other major streets in London, Bradley Avenue has a relatively modern existence. Its construction was the result of the massive suburban growth in the south end of the city during the 1970's and 1980's. The road was built in stages to correlate with this growth. Bradley Avenue is built on its own alignment between White Oak Road and Highbury Avenue, with the remainder of the road located on former Pond View Road.

In 2007, it was voted as the second worst road in Ontario in a CAA poll. [cite web

Future extension

Bradley Avenue is proposed to be extended from its current terminus at White Oak Road to connect with Pack Road. Construction is tied to the completion of new housing development in the area. No definitive time line is set for this construction as of 2007.
