Fallowfield Road (Ottawa)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fallowfield Road (Ottawa Road #12), is a major road in southwestern Ottawa. It is a common commuting road for Barrhaven and provides a route to western communities such as Fallowfield village and Munster.
Fallowfield Road begins in the east at Prince of Wales Drive, near the Rideau River. There are major intersections with Merivale Road and Woodroffe Avenue before entering Barrhaven. The road also provides the name for Fallowfield Station, which is a local hub for OC Transpo as well as a VIA Rail station. The stretch of road between Woodroffe and Greenbank has recently been widened to four lanes and the speed limit raised to 80 km/h. The road then passes over the highest elevation in Barrhaven before crossing Cedarview Road, considered the western boundary of Barrhaven.
Fallowfield Road continues as a rural, high-speed road. There is an interchange with Highway 416, followed by intersections with Moodie Drive, Richmond Road, and Eagleson Road. Continuing westward, Fallowfield terminates at Dwyer Hill Road.
