I didn't explain that well enough.  It is only a short street, about 200
metres long.
The western end has a street sign "Michael Av".  The eastern end has a
street sign "Michael St".  I could label it with the name used by Melway
and the Lands Department, but I was wondering if there are any other
Victorian online sources where you can confirm the name, and which don't
have restrictions on how you can use the information.

Of course I could ring up the council and ask them, and then get them to
correct their sign...
