The southern end commences at the intersection of York Street and Nicholson Street in North Fitzroy. Branching from diagonally from Nicholson, the street proceeds in a roughly north-north-east direction, crossing Brunswick Street at Watkins Street. Here, it becomes a major throughfare and the 112 tram route enters the street. It continues in the same direction until it crosses the Merri Creek. On the Northcote side of the creek, there is a large roundabout, and St Georges Road continues more directly north as a divided road until it terminates at Murray Road, Preston, where it joins Spring Street. [Melway (Edition 33, 2006) maps 18 and 30. ISBN 0-909439-14-1] . The local council, the City of Yarra, has recently planted small trees between Merri Bridge and Holden Street.
