Innes Road

It is the main route serving Blackburn Hamlet and south Orléans, as well as several industrial and commercial areas in east Ottawa.

Innes splits in Blackburn Hamlet; The original alignment runs through the community as an undivided road with a lower speed limit of 50 km/h (31 mph).

Innes Road, originally called the 3rd Line, was completed as a link between the communities of Blackburn and Cyrville in 1878.

[3][4] When the western portion of the road was widened and realigned in the 1980s, much of it ran north of, and parallel to, the original roadway.

In Fall 2013, a new cairn with a commemorative plaque was placed in front of Gloucester Hall on Bank Street.
