And that perhaps provides an alternative way of answering the OP's
question:
the rule for street names in English is that the local identification
(if any) always precedes the type of throroughfare.

A frequent exception to that is where a street has been split in two by
a new ring-road or the like. E.g. in Salisbury George St and George St
South, Meadow Rd and Meadow Rd South either side of A36 Churchill
Way, in Coventry Woodside and Wainbody Aves North and South
either side of A45 Kenpas Highway.
