8th Street East (Saskatoon, Saskatchewan)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

8th Street East is a road serving the city of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. It begins as a continuation of a minor residential street (8th Street West) at Highway 219 (Lorne Avenue) in Saskatoon, and runs through the city, eventually exiting the city limits and continuing to Range Road 3033 in the Corman Park Rural Municipality near Patience Lake. 8th Street East is about 21 km (13 mi.) long.

8th Street East is an important arterial road within Saskatoon, and from Clarence Avenue to McKercher Drive is considered the city's main commercial district, with many shops and businesses, including a major regional shopping centre and several strip malls located on the road. 8th Street East is divided by a boulevard until Boychuk Drive, where it downgrades to a two-lane road, and becomes a gravel road after leaving Saskatoon. It is part of the longer but broken-up Township Road 364.
