Overall, the article looks good. There are just a few things that came up while reading through it:
- "Orlando Road, which intersected in Pottstown..." By "intersected", do you mean "split off"? If so, different phrasing would be helpful.
- "Route 663 intersects with a road that takes you into a housing complex" "You" shouldn't be included in an encyclopedia. Perhaps "that ends at a housing complex"?
- I'm not sure what is meant by "showing the way".
- What is the road called when it is concurrent with State Route 73? And by concurrent, do you mean side-by-side?
- In the "History" section, "was given pavement" sounds strange. Perhaps "was paved"?
- "for which the highway crosses soon after" is confusing phrasing.
- "Interstate 476 or the Pennsylvania Turnpike's Northeastern Extension" does this mean that Pennsylvania Turnpike's Northeastern Extension is Interstate 476? If so, a comma is missing after 476.
- "The route leaves Milford Township, but not after passing through Milford Square, a small municipality in the town." This is
a confusing sentence. It seems to be saying that SR 663 doesn't pass through Milford Square. Am I reading that correctly?
- Can more information be provided for reference 8 (the atlas)?
I will place the nomination on hold to allow for these concerns to be addressed and/or discussed. Any questions or comments can be left here, as I have added this page to my watchlist. Best wishes, GaryColemanFan (talk) 21:46, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

- Thanks for the quick response to the review. I had checked Merriam Webster to make sure that I understood how "concurrent" was being used. It gave two definitions (running parallel, and meeting or intersecting in a point), which led to the confusion. I can't think of a better word to use in this article, though, and I think your clarification in the article helped. I'm still not crazy about "was given pavement", but maybe that's personal preference. At any rate, since the aricle meets the 6 criteria for a Good Article, I am promoting it. Great job!
