"They were found in a house in Willenhall Drive, Hayes."
Does it become 'ON Willenhall Drive' in AmE?
Thank you.

Re: on XXX Drive
needs more thought
In BrE we would also usually say 'on'. Although 'in' is often used interchangably with 'on'
Could be a bit like
the shop is on/in the High Street
Even if Wilenhall Drive is a cul-de-sac, i.e. closed at one end, in/on still works.
Both are natural useage in BrE
