Precision
[edit]The article states that the route is 18.478 miles long. First of all, is it really necessary to give road lengths to thousandths of a mile? That's 5.28 feet (63.36 inches)! Secondly, one should not confuse precision with accuracy; I wonder if even the state highway department knows exactly how many inches long its roads are.--Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 15:41, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
- That's perfectly fine. Go ahead and look at the CDOT records, they do state how many feet/inches. However, you can go ahead and shorten it, but I wrote it to the finest accuracy posssible. Articles need to provide more information, write? --PCB 15:56, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
The interchanges
[edit]Yes, I had a little trouble with the wording as well. Obviously there are two total interchanges, but how should it be worded? --PCB 15:58, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
