Dear ESL Members

I came across both possibilities when telling the way.
Which one is correct:

Then turn INTO or ONTO X street.

Thanks

I think ONTO is possible in this case, since we use the preposition on associated with street, addind to for movement.

I think it �s a BE/AmE thing. I think that they would say "into" in England, but we say "onto" in the US.

Agree with Bruce. And, you can also say, �turn down��turn along� �turn up.�
