Comments:

  1. Make "New Jersey Turnpike Newark Bay Extension" a redirect to Interstate 78 in New Jersey.
  2. Refine the I-78 link to the state-detail page.
  3. The entire route description is sourced from Yahoo Maps. The SLD can also be used as a source.
    1 paragraph and it really serves little.Mitch32(Want help? See here!) 00:59, 21 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
  4. The sentence "Route 185 was first conceived in the state legislature in 1976, a when an addition to the state statues for a route from Harbor Drive to an intersection with Bayview Avenue." sounds awkward.
  5. The sentence "The route opened on February 25, 1988 from New Jersey Route 169 (now NJ 440) to an intersection with Linden Avenue, only 33% of its proposed alignment." is referenced to Alps' Roads, which is not a reliable source. A different source should be used here.
    No newspaper mentions it.
  6. Can a picture of the route be added to the article?

I am placing the article on hold. Dough4872 (talk) 00:42, 21 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

I will leave this on hold for the standard 7 days, or longer if needed. --Rschen7754 23:47, 25 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Demoting as no efforts have been made to save the article after 7 days. --Rschen7754 04:10, 2 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
