  1. Is it reasonably well written?

    "Development along the highway quickly rises in volume"->"Development along the highway quickly rises in density"
    Done.Mitch32(Erie Railroad Information Hog) 19:32, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    Keep consistent with the south to north description of the highway, and the route is posted as north&south, but "NY 75 westbound merges directly into NY 5 eastbound, while NY 75 eastbound begins as an off-shoot of NY 5 westbound." Change it to "NY 75 northbound merges directly into NY 5 eastbound, while NY 75 southbound begins as an off-shoot of NY 5 westbound."

Made most of the important changes, when and if TwinsMetsFan comes around, he can get the last one.Mitch32(Erie Railroad Information Hog) 19:32, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your help. I will continue to hold pending the return of TMF. Racepacket (talk) 21:58, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Traffic volumes along NY 75 are about what anyone would expect: less than 2,000 south of US 62 and over 10,000 along and north of US 62. I don't see a logical place in the article to put it, and given that the counts pretty much mirror the amount of development along the road - described by the RD - I question the need to mention it at all. – TMF 10:43, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Welcome back and congratulations on another GA. Racepacket (talk) 11:12, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
