Proximo changes its meaning depending on its position:
- La próxima calle = The next street
- La calle próxima = The nearby street

I answered ¨la calle próxima¨, and it was accepted, with ¨la próxima calle¨ offered as another correct solution. (14 Nov 2018)

Since I asked this question myself I have learnt that words to do with number tend to go before the noun.
Diez calles
La última calle
La tercera calle
La próxima calle

Actually in Spanish one can use "siguiente" to mean next.
"Next" can be stated by using "próxima" or "que viene" or "siguente".
I wrote "Voy a girar a la derecha en la calle próxima" and it was marked wrong. The answer said I should have used "via." What's wrong with it?

Why isn’t al accepted...?why did it need to be a la? I wrote “girar al derecha”
'al' is a compression of 'a el' for example 'al supermercado'. You wouldn't say 'a el supermercado'. Derecha is feminine therefore it is 'a la derecha'
