GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
References do not need to be included in the lead unless the information there is unique.

Done

Do not use "then" in describing progression of route.

Done

"The roadway then reaches the Turnagain Arm, and turns left, traveling along the arm.", instead of indicating it turns left, indicate what direction the road turns.

Done

The sentence "The highway reaches its northern terminus, an access road to the Porcupine Creek Campgrounds, having spent its entire course inside the national forest" sounds awkward and needs to be reworded.

Done

The traffic counts should be included in the Route description rather than the history.

Done
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
Reference 3 appears to be a WP:SPS and needs to be replaced.

Done
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
What town or area is the southern terminus of the highway in? This should be indicated in the infobox.

Done

Who maintains the road?

Done
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

I will put the article on hold for fixes to be made. Dough 48 72 23:57, 18 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
