Shirley Rd, Wollstonecraft

After it moves away from its busy Crows Nest end, Shirley Road is home to apartment block after apartment block. It is very difficult to find street numbers here, leading to much confusion for visitors. Always ask for the nearest cross street, or a landmark, when finding addresses here! Once past the apartments though, Shirley Road enters the peaceful area of the Berry Island Reserve – which could not be more opposite to the busy Pacific Highway if it tried!!

Shirley Road is very long – running from the Pacific Highway in Crows Nest, through to the waterfront reserve at Berry Island Reserve. In its Crows Nest Section, it is home to several commercial and medical practices, the Fire Station, and apartment blocks. It has a busy intersection at River Road, where traffic to and from the Lane Cove/Hunters Hill area access the city routes.
