Military Road forms the spine of Avondale Heights, winding in the curvilinear style championed by Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin to follow the suburb’s gently rolling plateau. The main thoroughfare begins at Canning Street, where a cluster of around 40 shops creates a bustling commercial strip, and continues past the Avondale Heights Police Station before turning into Milleara Road near St Martin De Porres Primary School, where a second, smaller precinct of about 20 retailers serves the local community.

The streetscape blends low‑rise residential housing with easy access to key amenities: primary schools at both the north (Avondale Primary) and south (St Martin De Porres), the local post office, and the police station all lie within a kilometre of Military Road. Proximity to Maribyrnong Road provides a direct link to the wider Melbourne network, while nearby parks, the historic Defence Explosive Factory site and tram stops at Central Park Ave/Cordite Ave and Raleigh Rd/Wests Rd round out the suburb’s convenient transport and leisure options.
