Innes Road

Innes Road

Innes Road (Ottawa Road #30) is one of the most important streets in the east end of the City of Ottawa, Canada, running through the former cities of Gloucester and Cumberland. It is the main route serving Blackburn Hamlet and south Orleans, as well as several industrial and commercial areas in east Ottawa. This road has changed considerably over the years.

The western section from St. Laurent Boulevard to Cyrville Road is a four-lane principal arterial road that primarily runs through industrial and light commercial areas with partial access control, although with an 80 km/h (50 mph) speed limit. Some residential frontage and considerable commercial frontage exists in the fairly congested section east of Highway 417, where Innes widens to six lanes up to Blackburn Hamlet and then becomes a divided four-lane road. The Canadian Conservation Institute is located in this section.

Innes splits in Blackburn Hamlet; The original alignment runs through the community as an undivided road with a lower speed limit of 50 km/h (30 mph). On both streches of road, it is very common to get caught by speed traps - drive with caution. The 3.3 km (2.1 mile) long Blackburn Bypass (Ottawa Road 128) was built later; it is a divided expressway around Blackburn Hamlet maintaining 80 km/h (50 mph), greatly speeding up the commute to Orléans.

Once in Orléans, Innes once again becomes a commercial/mixed frontage principal arterial road. This was recently widened from two to four lanes due to the urban sprawl of south Orleans. The most congested section is at 10th Line Road, which has become the second commercial hub of Orleans (after Place d'Orleans). The speed limit through Orleans is 60 km/h (40 mph) although during the construction project it was reduced mostly to 50km/h.

Once clear of Orléans (east of Frank Kenny Road), Innes becomes a rural road.
