Weber Street /ˈwiːbər/, or Waterloo Regional Road 8, is a major roadway in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. The street is likely named after one of the Germans from Pennsylvania who migrated to the region (Stroh 1930, Stroh 1931, Uttley 1975, p. 10, Waterloo Region Generations, Henry Weber, David Weber). It is the only major street in Kitchener Waterloo with a Germanic name or named for German settlers in the region; most street names are in English.
