Terwillegar Drive is a developing freeway in south-west Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It is under construction, with the majority of its intersection at-grade, it retains its arterial road status. Once completed, it will be the third freeway in Edmonton not to have a highway designation after Groat Road and Wayne Gretzky Drive.
Because of the recent developments in the Windermere area, and the lack of proper signage, it remains unclear where the transition from 170 Street SW to Terwillegar Drive occurs, and the transfer from the SW to NW quadrant occurs. The placement of Quadrant (1) Avenue is approximately where Ambleside Link lays, however the 2009 edition of MapArt's City of Edmonton map places the quadrant line on Windermere Boulevard. Edmonton has adapted a quadrant system because portions lay south of Quadrant (1) Avenue, creating duplicates in Avenue numbers, addresses on 41 Avenue and south have been encouraged to include NW to avoid confusion with addresses south of Quadrant (1) Avenue.
In a Leduc County growth study, dated 2008, the expressway will continue south, west of the Edmonton International Airport, and then swing east across Highway 2 south of Leduc, and join Highway 2A between Kavanagh and Leduc, which is also scheduled to be twinned.

Famous quotes containing the word drive:
“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.... I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
