- It is reasonably well written.
- a (prose):
b (MoS): 
- The sentence "Its route bisects central Ottawa with downtown and the Parliament Buildings laying to the north; residential neighbourhoods including the Glebe line the south side." needs to be reworded.
- The sentence "On November 26, 1965, the structures over the Rideau Canal were opened to traffic, extending the westbound lanes to Concord Street, west of the Nicholas Street interchange." sounds choppy and needs to be reworded.
- a (prose):
- It is factually accurate and verifiable.
- a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
- The Queensway section of the route description needs citations.
- Citations needed for "and was opened in 2008 along with the Highway 7 expansion." and "The Arnprior Bypass was built to direct through traffic around downtown Arnprior and was designed for an eventual upgrade to freeway."
- a (references):
- It is broad in its coverage.
- a (major aspects): b (focused):
- Can the physical surroundings of the route be mentioned in the lead?
- The Western extension section seems to jump from talking about the western extensions to talking about the improvements made in Ottawa. Maybe this should be moved to a separate section.
- a (major aspects):
- It follows the neutral point of view policy.
- Fair representation without bias:

I will place the article on hold for some fixes to be made. Dough4872 01:55, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
- Alrighty. Thanks for the review! I've changed the "Western extension" section title so that it covers the topics being discussed. It's all in chronological order right now, so it would be hard to pull out the two paragraphs on widening in the 80s into a new section. Added a sentence to the lead on the surroundings. The Queensway RD section is sourced now, as well as the stuff about the Arnprior bypass and the openings in 2008. The sentence beginning "On November 26, 1965" has been broken in two. I made a few minor changes to the sentence beginning "Its route bisects", let me know if it works. Cheers, - ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ τ ¢ 18:40, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
- After a minor fix I made myself, I will pass the article. Dough4872 00:26, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
