Victoria Road (State Route A16) is major road in Adelaide, South Australia, connecting Port Adelaide to Outer Harbor on the LeFevre Peninsula.

It is a part of the A16 State Route, which begins in the suburb of Vista, as Grand Junction Road. It then continues as Bower Road, Causeway Road, and Nelson Street. Victoria Road is simply the last section.[1] The road name continues until it hits the roundabout which goes onto Lady Ruthven Drive then Lady Gowrie Drive then Esplanade is called Oliver Rogers Road.

Port River Expressway[]

Due to construction of the Port River Expressway, the southernmost point of Victoria Road has seen some major infrastructure changes. Originally the road began at the cross intersection with Nelson Street, Elders Road and Semaphore Road. When construction was completed late 2008, Victoria Road was diverted to become simply a continuation of the Port River Expressway, bypassing Semaphore Road and intersecting only with Nelson Street.[2]
