LEST WE FORGET
Veterans Memorial Parkway is a 9.2 kilometre four-lane expressway previously known as Highway 100 (1977 - 1994), and also as Airport Road prior to September 2006.
In 2005, a group of local Veterans approached council which approved their suggestion of renaming Airport Road to Veterans Memorial Parkway. On September 15, 2006, the Government of Canada joined Veterans and the City of London to honour the sacrifices and contributions made by Canadian Veterans and paid tribute to fallen service men and women. Part of the ceremony was the unveiling of new road signs and remembrance banners which were installed at major intersections along the Parkway.

NORMANDY DR
Normandy Drive was dedicated in 1946 to honour Stratford Veterans who served with units that took part in the Battle of Normandy Invasion in 1944.
Victory in the Battle of Normandy came at a terrible cost. The Canadians suffered the highest casualties of any divisions in the British Army Group during the campaign. Some 359 Canadian soldiers were killed on D-Day alone, and a total of more than 5,000 would die during the two-and-a-half-months of fighting in Normandy.
