Unfinished 101 overpass

Does anybody have any photos of this? I grew up in the area, and I remember for a long time in the mid-70s the overpass from I think 680SB to 101SB remained uncompleted, and looked like a giant Stonehenge. Torc 07:23, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Cordelia Junction within Fairfield city limits

Cordelia Junction is within the community of Cordelia, which is within the city of Fairfield, California. It is called a junction because California State Route 12, Interstate 80, and Interstate 680 meet all at the same place. I'd like to see an article written about Cordelia. Notable places within Cordelia are new homes, some truck stops, a Saturn dealer, and of course, the fun park Scandia. Just note that I wrote Fairfield on the article page for now because it is technically in Fairfield. --Geopgeop 16:08, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

It's like calling Glen Cove in Vallejo a community of its own. Although they have a lot of stuff there, I still don't think it's notable enough for its own article. --LBMixPro<Speak|on|it!> 08:40, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
Not quite. It's like calling Niles in Fremont, California a community of its own. Cordelia used to be a separate and distinct unincorporated town, but has gradually been absorbed by Fairfield. Argyriou (talk) 08:52, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

680/24 Interchange

Does anybody have any information on the construction of the new 680/24 interchange in the late 90s? I think that would be a worthwhile addition to the history section. Maybe even a photo of that very high temporary overpass. Charlesmartin82 (talk) 10:12, 30 August 2009 (UTC)


GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:Interstate 680 (California)/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.
Well-written.
  • Lead section
    • Add "its southernmost point" between "...begins" and "at...".
  • Route description section
    • In the last sentence of the least paragraph, spell out California General Assembly in the Assembly Concurrent Resolution 104, chapter 168.
    • For the last sentence of the second paragraph, be more specific in mentioning "takeover robbery"? Is that a carjacking?
    • In the final paragraph's fourth sentence, check spelling of Carquinez Strait. It may be misspelled.
  • History section
    • Create articles or redirects if needed for US101E, Martinez-Benica Ferry, California Route 74, and urgency measure.
    • In the lead sentence of the fourth paragraph, put "(Federal Highway Administration after 1967)" after The Bureau of Public Roads.
  • Future section
    • How long has the proposal to add a high-occupancy toll been under consideration? Please specify.
Factually accurate and verifiable.
  • References missing on the first five paragraphs in the Route descrption section.
  • No references listed in the Future section.
  • For references listed, use WP:CITET to get formats standardized.
  • Reference 10: Create article for California Highways and Public Works.
  • Reference 15: Create article for urgency measure.
  • Reference 16: Create and italicize San Mateo Times.
  • References 20 and 22: Italicize Oakland Tribune.
  • Reference 29: Shown as "Forbidden" when checked out. Find alternative reference.
  • External link: The link has been moved. Please show.
Neutral.
  • No issues.
Stable.
  • Last edit was yesterday. Prior to that, it was on 5 May 2010.
Images.
  • All images are valid.
  • For images taken in the Route description section and the first one in the History section, list when the images were take in the caption.
Overall
  • Hold. Needs works, but can be done for GA.

Reviewer: Chris (talk) 13:36, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

I believe the red links do not need to be created for it to be GA. Also, for the stability section, what do you mean? --PCB 20:14, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
It was when the last set of edits took place. This was for point of reference on stability. Sorry about the misunderstanding. Chris (talk) 22:49, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
Looks good so far. Do not forget to put dates the images were taken as mentioned in the images section review. Chris (talk) 15:04, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
Passed GA. Chris (talk) 15:12, 17 May 2010 (UTC)

Reaccess

There's a SPS somewhere in the article, shown here: 

<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cahighways.org/466-740.html#680 |title=California Highways (www.cahighways.org): Routes 466 through 740 |publisher=www.cahighways.org |date= |accessdate=2013-01-26}}{{Self-published source}}</ref>

With my attempted B-class upgrades of certain articles, resulting in admins yelling at me not to use SPSs, my memory tells me that no SPSs are allowed in GA-class articles.

Kevon kevono (talk) 02:30, 2 June 2016 (UTC) 19:30 (PDT)
@Kevon kevono: First of all, it's "Reassess", not "Reaccess". Secondly, have you tried fixing the article, rather than suggesting that this article be demoted? WP:SOFIXIT exists for a reason. (hint) Which, when I was looking at this, turned up an even bigger issue, but I'll see if you can spot it. --Rschen7754 04:08, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
After almost 2 months, I still haven't. Kevon kevono (talk) 04:11, 30 July 2016 (UTC) 21:11 (PDT)
I already removed some plagiarism from the article. --Rschen7754 04:19, 30 July 2016 (UTC)

Interstate 113

If you type in "Interstate 113" into the search bar, it will redirect you to Interstate 680. Can anybody provide info on this in the history section? Thanks in advance. Charizardmewtwo (talk) 20:46, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
