Where did all the images go???? Why do you keep drasticly changing things on this page? Things were just fine (and untouched) the way they were and had been for months!!! The article provided the images with the information... no one is gonna see that media icon and click on it for the images... it needs to have the gallery like every other page included on it.

I have contacted the copyright owners of the vintage maps "R R Donnelley & Sons Company" I was given a reply from the Vice President, Associate General Counsel that I have their permission to use these maps for Wikipedia purposes. Now how do I go about putting that on the page for the map? Route 82 21:33, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
as a primary recreational corridor, and as
a primary emergency evacuation corridor [1], but there is no mention made of tourism / recreation in the whole article. The only mention of Route 55 being used as an emergency evacuation corridor is this statement
The Cape May Peninsula and surrounding area does not have a proper evacuation route and Route 55 may get built to accommodate that.v
. If there are other state transportation planning authjorities involved with this route, perhaps their plans could be mentioned as well, and the reader informed that there is such a thing.
is not substantiated in reference 9 anywhere. Reference 9 refers to an investigation to improve traffic flow in an east and west direction for economic development in this region. This investigation involves Route 55 between Vineland and Bridgeton by folks referred to as the SJPTO, CCDPO and CDC. Another side note- the Highway 55 does not mention anything exciting such as economic development going on. With highways presently providing a major mode of transport for economic developers. This is mentioned as such,It would likely be years if not a decade or more before anything happens
. Perhaps what economic development could be mentioned. Is it gold mines, shopping malls, whale fishing, or oil drilling? What is this area of New Jersey up to in its economic sector that Route 55 could help out with?The freeway has been instrumental in bringing economic development to southern New Jersey, Vineland in particular.
is not substantiated in reference 10 anywhere. This citation is about legislation allocating $8,000,000 to develop a concept design to follow up on the 1998 Corridor Transportation Study.It would likely be years if not a decade or more before anything happens.
which could be a wonderful lead into a blurb about future developments to help summarize the article. As well there is no mention of the history in the lead. What makes this road notable such asroutine traffic tie ups
. If only the lead was used in for instance a portal. Or if the article made it to FA and only the lead was used to introduce the article would the reader know everything about the entire article, and be induced to click on the wikilink to further read the sections.Route 55 is the longest continuous state route freeway in New Jersey

Wrote a few notes. Uh, sorry about that, but they should be very easy to fix, and address. The article can achieve GA or even FA after updates are done. I wish you every success with your article, as highways are an important institution, and I would very much like this article to achieve GA or FA!

The article is good overall, though I did find a couple issues:
Will finish review tonight. Wizardman 21:37, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
This article has a statement, "To save on maintenance costs, the NJDOT removed these call boxes in 2005."
There are 2 cited sources for this statement:
1. Cichowski, John, Reducing highway safety completely uncalled, The Record, June 26, 2005
2. Barlas, Thomas, Last call for N.J.'s roadside call boxes, The Press of Atlantic City, February 28, 2007
The cited Record article makes absolutely NO mention of removal of any boxes on Route 55. It should be removed as a citation.
In fact the Record article states:
The cited Press of Atlantic City article mentions removal of these boxes on Route 55. It should remain in as the citation for this statement.
I had removed the Record citation on 2/28/13 and kept the Press of Atlantic City citation for that statement for the reasons noted below in my Edit Summary.
Choyoołʼįįhí:Seb az86556 haneʼ undid my change without any explanation. Choyoołʼįįhí:Seb az86556 haneʼ needs to explain why The Record citation, which makes NO mention of removal of these boxes on Route 55, should be reinserted when the Atlantic City Press article fully covers the referenced statement. Wondering55 ( talk) 20:15, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
Alansohn ( talk), who undid the original changes, needs to explain why The Record citation, Item 1 above, which makes NO mention of removal of these boxes on Route 55, but mentions that call boxes are still being used, should be kept when the Atlantic City Press article, Item 2 above, fully covers the referenced statement about call boxes being removed.
