I'll review this. I'll try to get to it tonight because I won't be on much tomorrow or Saturday. –TC N7 JM 01:14, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

"(SR 173)" SR 173 should be bolded, but not the parentheses.
"a 11.86-mile-long" a → an since the first syllable of "eleven" is a vowel sound.

Route description

"The 2-lane street" Write out the number two.
NHS info?
- Not part of NHS, so it doesn't need to be there.

History

"The Brewster Bridge was completed in June 1928 as the roadway was first codified in 1931" I don't think as is the right word here. Maybe change it to and or with the route being codified in...
Not once do you give the exact year for the rebuilding of the Brewster Bridge. Is it not available?
- Not available. 1976 is earliest ref referring to a rebuilt bridge.

References

On second thought, you should probably shorten Refs 17 and 19 with hidden text

All other sections are fine.

Final verdict

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall: Just a few minor errors, and I can pass it. –TC N7 JM 01:47, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Pass/Fail:

Taken all suggestions and implemented them. Sounder Bruce 02:20, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It would still be nice if you added in there that it isn't part of the NHS, but since that's mainly optional, I won't hold up the review for that small of an issue.

Congrats! –TC N7 JM 02:24, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
