Doña Soledad Avenue is an east-west route in the southern Metro Manila city of Parañaque, Philippines. It is located in Don Bosco, Sun Valley and Moonwalk, which are neighborhoods located in northeastern Parañaque. It runs from its intersection with E. Rodriguez Avenue in the eastern edge of Moonwalk. The road continues to the east, entering Better Living Subdivision. It then curves north for a few blocks, then turns east and heads for its terminus at Bicutan interchange of South Luzon Expressway (SLEX) and the Manila Skyway. East of SLEX, the avenue enters Lower Bicutan, Taguig where it continues as General Santos Avenue.

Name

The avenue was named after Doña Soledad Lirio Dolor, a former Assemblywoman from the province of Batangas, landowner and real estate developer who pursued several subdivision projects, including Better Living in Parañaque where this road passes.[1][2] It is also sometimes referred to by non-Parañaqueños as Bicutan Road being the road that goes to and from Bicutan.
