Carling Avenue

Others

Carling is now known as Ottawa Road #38 but used to be Highway 17B east of Richmond Road until the Ontario government downloaded the highway to the local government. Until the 1970s, the western part of Carling was also part of Highway 17.

In every year from 2004 to 2007, Carling Avenue has been named one of Ontario's worst 20 roads in a CAA survey, citing frequent bumps and potholes. Construction is underway through certain portions of it.
