GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
The sentence "SR 502 crosses over Mill Creek and travels through the city until an intersection with 10th Avenue,[8] signed as SR 503,[9] where the designated highway ends as Main Street continues east." needs to be reworded.
Reworded by removing "10th Avenue" and moving up Main Street

I would list the events in the history in chronological order by starting with describing SSH 1S and then mentioning when SR 502 was created later on instead of starting with SR 502 being created then jumping back to describe SSH 1S.
Moved and merged with US 99/I-5 sentence, merged first two SSH 1S sentences
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
I do not think NE 10th Avenue should be included in the junction list as only current numbered routes are typically included.
Its the former alignment of the highway, but I'll remove it.
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

I will put the article on hold for a couple minor fixes to be made. Dough 48 72 17:07, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"six-phase plan to provide congestion relief to the 502/503 corridor..."[edit]

Hey everyone,

Local news article about recent completions of a third part of a six-phase overhaul project involving the 502 & 503 routes, here - [1]. Looks like the 502 page has some of this project added from a couple years ago so this is a heads up if someone finds it worthy to add (and it's not my strong suit, so I leave it up to experienced transpo writers). I'll go ahead and post this on the 503 talk page as well.
