The 13-part series went to air from 16 April 2008. The series debuted to mixed critical reception and only average ratings, which were further eroded when the series was moved to a later timeslot. Nine removed Canal Road from its schedules after the seventh episode, which drew in only 360,000 viewers; however the eighth episode was still made available online. Nine eventually aired the remaining episodes during August and December 2008.

Canal Road was released on DVD on 4 August 2008 in Australia.
