Baseline Road/101 Avenue NW is a major arterial road in east Edmonton and north Sherwood Park, Alberta, Canada. It was given this name by Strathcona County because Township Road 530 was used as a baseline for surveying. Edmonton does not follow Strathcona County's naming convention and refers to it as 101 Avenue NW. The boundary between the City of Edmonton and Strathcona County runs on the north side of this Right of Way from the east edge of Goldstick Park to 34 Street NW. It also separates the Imperial Oil Strathcona Refinery and Suncor Energy refinery in Refinery Row.
