Old Prescott Road is a road in Greely community in Ottawa, Canada, that goes from Mitch Owens Road all the way to Stagecoach Road. It is two lanes, and the speed limit is 60 km/h (37 mph) in the built up area from Mitch Owens until past Shadow Ridge Estates.
During the late 1990s prior to amalgamation, a teacher at Greely Elementary School was killed in a motor-vehicle accident at the intersection of Old Prescott Road and Parkway Road. The Regional Municipality of Ottawa-Carleton did a study of the intersection following an outcry by the community demanding a four way light, but the Osgoode Township Council only approved a four-way stop sign. A year later, it was replaced with a four way traffic light due to the noise of trucks stopping at the stop signs.
