Victoria Trail is an arterial road under construction in northeast Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It begins at the same Yellowhead Trail interchange as 118 Avenue, travels north through a number of neighbourhoods, and currently ends at 153 Avenue. The City of Edmonton plans to expand the residential area north, this new neighbourhood will be called Gorman, and a new LRT station will be opened in 2012, also called Gorman. The current construction schedule has the Anthony Henday Drive constructed after the LRT tracks and Victoria Trail extended north.[1][2]
