Merge with Hume Highway?

I can't quite see why this is not merged with the Hume Highway article - doesn't seem to have material that couldn't be incorporated there--Golden Wattle ^talk 10:08, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it should be merged to the Hume Highway article, that article is already quite long and would then be made even longer. Maintaining this article helps to document the rich history of the Hume Highway. Ajayvius 09:48, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Further to my last comment, I note that unfortunately the 'history' section of this article is out of kilter in that it seems to focus on the construction of new roadway. In that sense there is significant overlap with the Hume Highway article, however I believe with appropriate editing the articles can again become appropriately distinct.
