McOrmond Drive (Saskatoon, Saskatchewan)

'''McOrmond Drive''' is a road serving the city of [[Saskatoon, Saskatchewan]]. It begins as a grid road at [[8th Street East (Saskatoon, Saskatchewan)|8th Street East]] outside of [[Saskatoon]], and runs through the [[Corman Park No. 344, Saskatchewan|Corman Park Rural Municipality]], before turning into a minor arterial road at a signalized intersection at [[Saskatchewan Highway 5|Highway 5]] (College Drive). The road was originally a collector road prior to growth in the city's northeast sector. as [[Erindale, Saskatoon|Erindale]] and [[Arbor Creek, Saskatoon|Arbor Creek]] finished completion and with the growth of both the [[Willowgrove, Saskatoon|Willowgrove]] neighborhood and the [[University Heights Suburban Centre, Saskatoon|University Heights Suburban Centre]], McOrmond expanded into a four lane arterial roadway in 2003. It will be further expanded with future growth in the northeast sector in years to come. In July 2008, the city released a concept plan for the [[Evergreen, Saskatoon|Evergreen]] neighborhood, which sees McOrmond go through the [[Agriculture Canada]] research farms and meet up with Fedoruk Drive before curving east to meet with either [[Saskatchewan Highway 41|Highway 41]] or a proposed Perimeter Highway. <ref>[http://www.saskatoon.ca/org/land/residential/land_for_sale/Proposed%20Evergreen%20Neighbourhood.pdf Proposed Evergreen Neighborhood Concept Plan ] URL accessed July 18, 2008</ref>
