Murray St entrance

When entering the freeway southbound from Murray street, West Perth you dont access Elder street, traffic approaching from Elder street merges on the ramp. IMHO Murray st should be listed as a separate enterance. Gnan garra 10:45, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have changed "Elder Street" to "Murray Street / Elder Street". I have listed them together as they use the same ramp (after merging) and are at the same location. - Evad37 (talk) 11:39, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Interchange types

I'd class the Narrows interchange with Mounts Bay Road as a very heavily modified folded-diamond interchange, although that may be clutching at straws. Would you agree or is the interchange too unique to classify in this article? Outrune (talk) 12:35, 19 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it should be classified as "a very heavily modified folded-diamond interchange". It would seem like hybrid interchange would be more appropriate. According to Interchange (road), "Hybrid interchanges use a mixture of interchange types and are not uncommon. Their construction can consist of multiple interchange designs such as loop ramps, flyovers and roundabouts." - Evad37 (talk) 06:02, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for starting this review. I've made most of the suggested changes below. - Evad37 (talk) 10:30, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

Looks good.

History

"controlled access highway" → "controlled-access highway".

Done

Per MOS:NUM, "forty three thousand sand drains" → "43,000 drains"

Done

"Narrows interchange" → "Narrows Interchange"

Done

What does "CBD" stand for?

Done (central business district)

The first occurrence of "median strip" should be linked to Central reservation.

Done

Add {{convert}} for "3 km" and "4 km".

Done

"Simon O'Brien" should be linked to Simon O'Brien (politician).

Done

"Alannah McTiernan" should be linked to Alannah MacTiernan

Done

Future works

"$30m" → "$30 million"

Done

~~"The resulting congestion in the afternoon traffic peak increases the chances of rear-end crashes as well as driver frustration." should not be in present tense.~~

Not sure about this one... past tense (ie "... increased ...") doesn't seem appropriate as this applies the current situation, and will do so until construction is completed. I'll have a go at rewording/fixing this up later, or let me know if you have any ideas.

You're right, my apologies.

Route description

Is the "shared pedestrian and bicycle path" a Segregated cycle facility? If so, it should be linked there.

Done (linked to Segregated cycle facility#Off_road:_sidepath_.2F_shared-use_footway)

"Located just north of the Narrows Bridge, on the eastern edge of Kings Park, is the Narrows Interchange" → "The Narrows Interchange is located just north of the Narrows Bridge, on the eastern edge of Kings Park."

Done

Exits and interchanges

Looks good

References

Ref #17 is a dead link.

Done: Marked as {{dead link}} per WP:LINKROT. Also added another ref.

Ref #2 lacks an accessdate.

Done
