History
Historically, the part north of Balcatta Road was known as Allen Street (Road No.5), which continued diagonally to meet Wanneroo Road near present-day Culloton Crescent, and the part south of Balcatta Road was known as Odin Road, and was continuous with Odin Drive. Prior to the construction of the freeway through the area in 1984, Odin Road continued through the Karrinyup Road intersection to Innaloo along present-day Odin Road. When the route shields were introduced to Perth in 1986, Erindale Road was assigned State Route 77.
