GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
"Until recently, Jarvis extended north to Bloor", the term "recently" assumes it in relation to today, but will become outdated over time. Can different wording be used here? The phrase "The road jogs slightly west south of Blythwood Road" sounds awkward and should be reworded. The first paragraph of the History section contains a few short sentences that should be combined.
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
Citation needed for "The construction of the Vale of Avoca through the first half of the 1920s prompted the newly formed Toronto Transit Commission to extend the St. Clair streetcar line east to Mount Pleasant Road and then north to Eglinton Avenue. The road was paved at this time as far north as Eglinton."
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
Can some mention to the physical surroundings of the route be added to the route description? In addition, can a hatnote be added in the Major intersections table indicating the road is in Toronto.
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:
