'''Mirrabooka Avenue''' is a major north–south road located in the northern suburbs of Perth, Western Australia. It is a four-lane dual carriageway for its entire length. It mainly passes through residential areas, as well as industrial areas on the northern end of the road in Landsdale. On the southern end, it is continuous with Nollamara Avenue. On the northern end, it is continuous with Gnangara Road, which meets up with Ocean Reef Road and state route 84.<ref>{{cite web|title=Mirrabooka Avenue|url=https://www.google.com/maps/place/Mirrabooka+Ave,+Western+Australia,+Australia/@-31.8354014,115.8524712,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x2a32b1e2f9fdb179:0x6cc9fbcfcfcdfc04!8m2!3d-31.8354014!4d115.8546599|website=Google Maps|accessdate=4 January 2017}}</ref>
==History== In 2010, construction started on a diamond interchange for the junction of Reid Highway and Mirrabooka Avenue to improve safety and efficiency. Between 1999 and 2009, there were 400 crashes at the intersection, resulting in 4 fatalities and 38 serious injuries. In 2011, the work was completed.<ref>{{cite web|title=Reid Highway/Mirrabooka Avenue Overpass|url=https://www.mainroads.wa.gov.au/BuildingRoads/Projects/CompletedProjects/2011/Pages/ReidMirrabooka.aspx|website=Main Roads Western Australia|accessdate=4 January 2017}}</ref>
In 2011, Mirrabooka Avenue was extended north from Hepburn Avenue to Gnangara Road, ultimately replacing Madeley Street (which was a former road that stretched from Heathfield Drive to Gnangara Road).<ref>{{cite web|title=Mirrabooka Avenue Extension|url=http://www.cordellconnect.com.au/public/project/ProjectDetails.aspx?uid=901134|website=Cordell Construction Projects|accessdate=4 January 2017}}</ref>
