Mirrabooka Avenue is a major north-south road located in the northern suburbs of Perth, Western Australia. It is a 4 lane dual carriageway south of Landsdale Road, and a 2 lane single carriageway north of there, with provision for upgrading in the future. It mainly passes through residential areas, also passing a bit of industrial on the northern end of the road in Landsdale. On the southern end, it is continuous with Nollamara Avenue. On the northern end, it is continuous with Gnangara Road, which meets up with Ocean Reef Road and state route 84.
