[edit]- This split suggestion was tagged in April '06, but no reason was provided then. I can't see what would be split or what a disambig. page would include, and suggest removing the split tag. --CPAScott 13:51, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

NH 28 Bypass merge
[edit]- Support. Helps to consolidate content and improve quality. --TMF Let's Go Mets - Stats 20:36, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
- Against. This is a very distinct route. I grew up in one of the towns Bypass 28 passes through, and this isn't simply a little spur route; it's actually one of the more important highways in that region. It may begin and end on NH 28, but so does the southern section of 28A, and the bypass is longer than 28A and just as important (if not more so). It's also significantly longer (at just over 14 miles) than many mainline numbered NH routes, such as 38 (~8.5 mi), 141 (~2 mi), 85 (~5 mi). HOWEVER, if we were to merge both sections of 28A into this article, I'd be more willing to support the idea. - Underorbit 23:26, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
- With all due respect, if the bypass isn't a "little spur route", then why is the article a stub? --TMF Let's Go Mets - Stats 00:13, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
- There are actually a bunch of stubs in NH, Routes 4, 13, 18, 25 (a major route!), 27, 31...just a few examples. I obviously take partial blame for this (heh) but having a stub for an article doesn't really affect the importance of the route, IMO. Underorbit 02:51, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

- Oppose. The term "Bypass" is misleading; it's not a road that was built to bypass congestion in Manchester, but rather a very old highway (the Londonderry Turnpike, as mentioned in the article) that existed before the city of Manchester grew in the 19th century. The "Bypass" is, in fact, the direct (straight-line) route, while the current NH 28 detours to the west to go through Manchester. Don't let the unfortunate choice of name for the highway by the state DOT blind us to the fact that they really are two separate highways.--Ken Gallager 13:33, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
