In modern English, proper creek names do not take preceeding definite article. Remove "the" prior to Tulpehocken Creek in the Lead and in subsequent references.
The western terminus interchange is complex. Describe that a little more instead of just saying "an interchange." Identify the cross-freeway (West Shore Bypass?) and mention which routes follow it in which direction. Also mention the two missing movements.
The portion of the highway between its terminus and PA 183 has a few businesses that are directly accessed from the highway, so this stretch is not a freeway or even controlled-access. Be sure to avoid implying this stretch is a freeway, but do mention there is no cross-traffic. Mention the streets used from the RIRO interchanges to access PA 183 and that the route becomes freeway after the PA 183 RIROs.
There is excessive mention of surroundings. Much of this highway is a freeway, so unless the scenery is obvious and/or accessible from the road, cut down on the surrounding descriptions. For instance, the residential subdivisions on either side of the freeway between US 222 Bus and 11th Street are barely visible from the freeway.
Since the Route description is 3 1/2 paragraphs, I do not think you need subsections. The Main template is also unnecessary because you provide a link to the Warren Street Bypass in the Lead and this article is better than that article. I suggest integrating the AADT info into the other paragraphs and moving the NHS sentence to the Lead.
Removed subheaders and hatnote. I think it is easier to mention the highest and lowest traffic counts along with the NHS data at the end of the route description, but I am not opposed to mentioning them sat the beginning of the route description. I think it would he hard to follow if the traffic counts were integrated into the route description and I feel the NHS data should be presented somewhere in the route description as opposed to only in the lead.

You have a good point. It is at least a little awkward either way, but my idea is more awkward. The last paragraph can stay as is. VC 20:13, 24 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
US 422 is mentioned as part of Harrisburg Pike. US 222 is mentioned as part of Allentown Pike. Be sure to mention the current name of the relevant portion of the highway to provide context because the road names may have changed in the last 50-60 years. Looking at maps, I did not see any road named Park Street Extension. You need to let the reader know which existing road that is for context.
"The newly-opened Warren Street Bypass included an interchange with the under-construction Reading Bypass southwest of the Tulpehocken Creek." Clarify that this was the case in 1959, instead of using the ambiguous phrase "newly-opened."
I do not think it is necessary to have a line saying end of freeway because there is no line saying start of freeway.
I think this line is critical as it shows the difference between what intersections are interchanges along the freeway and what intersections are at-grade intersections. Dough487219:53, 24 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
Alternatively, you can mention in the notes column the type of interchange for each of the junctions. If you do that, you should merge the first two lines (both 0.00) together. VC 20:12, 24 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
I think it would be wordy to mention the type of interchanges as it is also redundant to the RD. Also, I do not know what type of interchange the US 222/US 422 interchange would be classified as. Dough487221:08, 24 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
I am probably being a little nitpicky here and I cannot come up with a better rationale, so I will allow this point to be sustained. However, I think this could be an issue if you decide to nominate this article at ACR. VC 22:28, 25 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
