Nash Road (Hamilton, Ontario)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nash Road is a Lower City street in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. It starts off at King Street East in front of the Father Sean O'Sullivan Memorial Park and is a two-way collector road throughout that extends north to the Nashdale neighbourhood past Bancroft Street where it then hangs a right and turns into Brampton Street, a road that runs parallel with the northern portion of the Red Hill Valley Parkway and the Queen Elizabeth Expresway. Interestingly, after the 90 degree bend, the street signage labels the street as Nash Road where it intersects with Kenora Avenue, although all maps call that street Brampton Street. Nash Road then continues north of the QEW and ends shortly thereafter at Van Wagners Beach Road, the site of Confederation Park.
