Good well detailed article that seems to pass all the criteria.

Here's a few comments in case there's interest in raising this to FA status.

It would be good to have a bit more detail on features along the route, such as beauty spots, interesting sites, good places to stop for refreshment, etc.

You could also possibly add some general human interest stories if you can find anything related. Ive read a couple of FA articles on bridges from editor Iridescent which had some great examples of the sort of stories that can be added to transport articles to spice them up a bit.

Both in the lede and history section the word "by" is frequently used in sentences such as "MD 5 was designated by 1927" Is there some uncertainty about the date the designation was made? If not would be best to say "in 1927" which would be more precise for what is presumably a single event - one expects to see the word by to describe the cut off point for a process that happened over a long period , such as "by 2003 the entire network of roads as it exists today was complete".

Just clutching as straws really, cant fault the article. FeydHuxtable (talk) 17:12, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
