From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Metcalfe Street is a downtown arterial road in Ottawa, Canada. It is a north-south route, operating one way northbound, providing a key thoroughfare from Highway 417 (the Queensway).
The southern terminus is at Monkland Avenue in The Glebe neighbourhood. It proceeds north as a minor residential street until the Queensway interchange (exit 119).
