At 142 Street, 111 Avenue passes through the Edmonton's Central core residential neighbourhoods, passing a number of landmarks including the Telus World of Science, Westmount Centre, Kingsway Mall, Royal Alexandra Hospital, and Glenrose Rehabilitation Hospital. The portion between 101 Street and 90 Street has the name "Norwood Boulevard" in addition to 111 Avenue, this name has remained since the City of Edmonton decided to number its streets, but keep a select few names. 111 Avenue also has a western segment which continues west of Mayfield Road. It is a collector road which originates at Anthony Henday Drive, passes through the northwestern industrial areas, and ends at 163 Street just north its intersection with 111 Avenue / Mayfield Road. 112 Avenue At 90 Street the roadway becomes 112 Avenue and passes Commonwealth Stadium. To the east, it enters post-World War II neighbourhoods that are aligned with the North Saskatchewan River and at 76 Street, just west of Wayne Gretzky Drive, it begins run northeast. 112 Avenue ends at 50 Street between 114 Avenue and 115 Avenue, three blocks south of 118 Avenue. The misalignment of cross-streets along 50 Street is due to the street layout of the former town of Beverly.

Coordinate a streetscape plan that incorporates landscape infrastructure conducive to enhancing connectivity to surrounding initiatives and projects. This could include intersection modifications and associated landscape improvements on 96 Street and 95 Street linking to neighbourhood revitalization projects, business revitalization zones and others. Adapt existing eligibility requirements for the Façade Improvement Program and the Development Incentive Program to enable property owners along Norwood Boulevard to access funding. Currently, Façade Improvement Program funding is limited to projects within existing Business Revitalization Zone boundaries. A capital program and cost estimate for streetscape improvements would need to be developed. Physical infrastructure improvements are generally seen as a mechanism for encouraging business development in a given area.http://sirepub.edmonton.ca/sirepub/cache/2/tvmc5pyyhsc0zhahazwlkd45/19936202282013014245901.PDFJune 2017 InternetArchiveBot yes Neighbourhoods thumb|Looking east along 111 Avenue towards Commonwealth Stadium List of neighbourhoods Mayfield Road, 111 Avenue, and 112 Avenue runs through, in order from west to east.City of Edmonton map utility http://maps.edmonton.ca https://web.archive.org/web/20060902191321/http://maps.edmonton.ca/ 2006-09-02 live 2009-06-23 Britannia Youngstown Mayfield High Park McQueen North Glenora Woodcroft Inglewood Westmount Prince Rupert Queen Mary Park Central McDougall Spruce Avenue McCauley Alberta Avenue Parkdale Cromdale Virginia Park Bellevue Highlands Major intersections Edmonton incomplete 0.0 AB road 170 Street / Stony Plain Road Hwy 16A west yes At-grade (traffic lights); northbound exit and southbound entrance; as Mayfield Road 1.1 107 Avenue trans 1.9 163 Street (to 111 Avenue) North end of Mayfield Road; west end of 111 Avenue 2.7 156 Street 3.5 149 Street 4.4 142 Street Access to Telus World of Science 5.0 135 Street Access to Ross Sheppard High School and Westmount Centre 5.3 Groat Road AB Hwy 2 yes north yes 6.3 124 Street 8.2 109 Street Access to Kingsway Mall, NAIT, and City Centre 8.4 AB light-railAB hospitalKingsway Access to Kingsway/Royal Alex station, and Royal Alexandra Hospital 8.5 106 Street Adjacent to at-grade LRT crossing; alternate access to Kingsway Mall and NAIT trans 9.1 101 Street West end of Norwood Boulevard 9.3 97 Street AB Hwy 28 yes north yes trans 10.1 90 Street East end of 111 Avenue / Norwood Boulevard; west end of 112 Avenue 10.5 AB light-rail86 Street / Stadium Road Access to Stadium station and Commonwealth Stadium 10.9 82 Street Near at-grade LRT crossing 12.2 73 Street Access to Concordia University 12.3 Wayne Gretzky Drive Diamond interchange (traffic lights) 14.3 50 Street incomplete,trans West segment Edmonton incomplete 0.0 AB Hwy 216 Anthony Henday Drive north yes Northbound right-in/right-out; Hwy 216 exit 22 1.1 184 Street 2.0 178 Street 2.7 170 Street 3.6 3.7 163 Street / Mayfield Road / 111 Avenue (east) incomplete See also inline,title List of avenues in Edmonton Transportation in Edmonton References 2 expand Category:Roads in Edmonton
