There doesn't need to a be a non-breaking space (the ) between the US and Highway, just between the Highway and the number. It's the number we don't want to separate from one line to another, not the whole thing. Also, it's my understanding that Texas uses "Highway" not "Route", so even though USRD and AASHTO settled on that other form of the name for the article titles, we can use whichever in the prose of the article.
The AADT table is overkill. I'm opposed to that many statistics that most readers can't interpret. Is a 370-vehicle AADT high or low? Well, that requires interpretation based on a number of factors, but a simple "Traffic counts vary between X and Y" is good enough.
The one citation was a map, and so it should be cited as such for consistency.
Mr. Svirsky reproduces the National Bridge Inventory, but he does not edit it. That database he uses is a "prettied-up" version of raw text files produced by the FHWA, so that's who should be credited as the creator. It's no different than linking to a Google Books reproduction while crediting the original author/publisher of an old book.
Since the header template for junction lists supports a |type= parameter, there's no reason to default to "route" for states or road types that are not "routes". Since this is a "Farm to Market Road", |type=road is fine, which is what I did with County Road 492 (Marquette County, Michigan), yet state highways in Michigan default to |type=highway.
We don't use "TO" plates in junctions, and MOS:RJL requires the road name to be spelled out, so "Road" not "Rd." (That's standard, btw. The AP Stylebook only allows abbreviations that part of a road name when listing a full address, so "123 Main St." is fine, but "Main Street" and not "Main St.")
The bullet was missing on the OSM entry in the list in that section.
The " in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Public Roads" is not necessary as part of the publication information for the one map. Honestly, in the case of "partial revisions", we should use the most recent date; if I cite a second edition published in 2013 of a book originally published in 2003, we'd cite the 2013 date. The same should apply to maps.
