GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
The sentence "M-98 was removed from the state trunkline system in late 1960 or early 1961, and the designation was decommissioned at that time" is a little wordy.
That "wordiness" is necessary though. 1) We don't have a reliable source for an exact date of the removal and 2) there is the distinction to be drawn that the highway was removed from the system and it was the designation that was decommissioned. Imzadi 1979 → 00:52, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
Can some more details about the physical surroundings of the former route be added? The route description is currently short for a 16 mile road.
Not without breaking WP:OR can additional details be added. Short of identifying a nonexistent source for physical details, I can't add that sort of information for a highway that was decommissioned 50 years ago. Imzadi 1979 → 00:52, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
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):
An image of the road would be nice, but not required.
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

I will place the article on hold for a couple fixes to be made. Dough 48 72 00:47, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
