Spell check

My spellchecker advised the direction north west should be re written as North West in the initial italicized statement. I didn't change it as it wasn't a title of a place just a direction.SriMesh | talk 20:41, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article review

It has been a while since this article has been reviewed, so I have taken a look and saw lots of uncited statements, including entire paragraphs. Should this article go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 02:41, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delist: Limited edits to the article since GAR was opened, citation concerns remain. Z1720 (talk) 15:11, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delist In addition to the uncited sections, the article in general doesn't meet modern GA standards. There's an external link smack dab in the middle of the prose and it goes way off topic with entire paragraphs about topics that are not the highway in question. It reads as much like a travel guide as it does an encyclopedia article. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 23:25, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
