    Albion Road is an important north–south road in the southern part of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The street begins in the north as Albion Road North, at Walkley Road. It is internally designated as Ottawa Road 25, as part of the now-mostly unsigned Ottawa Roads system; a legacy of the former Ottawa-Carleton regional roads system.

    It runs only a short distance as a local road before being interrupted by the railway tracks and the Walkley O-Train garage servicing Line 2. South of the rail lines Albion Road proper begins. At first a small street running through a residential area, it becomes briefly an arterial road at Hunt Club Road and Bank Street before passing through the Blossom Park Community.

    South of Lester, it continues to run south, into the rural areas of Ottawa, as a minor arterial road, and it also forms the eastern boundary of Macdonald–Cartier International Airport. Albion Road continues through the rural part of Ottawa, ending at Mitch Owens Road, just northwest of Greely, Ontario.
