Project news

State and national updates

Thanks to efforts by TwinsMetsFan and JohnnyAlbert10, all 1 and 2 digit USH articles are at project standards. However, the 3 digit articles still need to be restructured.

New Jersey Route 55 is currently a GA nominee. However, County Route 622 (Middlesex County, New Jersey) failed its GA nomination after a record-breaking 34 days.

To reduce the number of permanent stub articles, a new minor routes list was created by User:JohnnyAlbert10 including state routes 102, 110, 121, 127, 179, 424, 474, 505, 531, 618 and 955.

A new minor routes list was created by User:TwinsMetsFan including state routes 280, 329, 409, 419, and 421.

On September 30, 2007, WP:NYCR was merged into its parent, WP:NYSR. This was due to the recent or proposed merges, redirects, and deletions of nearly all of its articles. The remaining notable routes will be handled by WP:NYCR.

Wurzbach Parkway was featured for WP:DYK on 25 September 2007.
