2. "Past NY 281, NY 222 runs across a commercial section of Cortlandville, passing several strip malls prior to entering the city of Cortland." - Seems clunky to me, maybe this would be better "Once past NY 281, NY 222 crosses through a commercial section of Cortlandville, passing near several
strip malls prior to entering the city of Cortland."
5. "The road was added to the state highway system on October 11, 1907, as unsigned State Highway 446 (SH 446)." - I wouldn't use the comma after 1907, and I think added the word an after as.
6. "A contract to improve the part of the Groton–Cortland road leading west from Highland Road to the Tompkins County line was awarded on April 29, 1912; this segment was accepted into the state highway system on January 8, 1913, as SH 996." - I would make this two sentences. "A contract to improve the part of the Groton–Cortland road leading west from Highland Road to the Tompkins County line was awarded on April 29, 1912. This segment was subsequently accepted into the state highway system, as SH 996, on January 8, 1913."
7. This final suggestion is only that, but I would use non-breaking spaces
WP:NBSP where a number is related to something specific, examples like dates "July 10", or the unlinked highways like SH 996 and NY 222.
8. Two links came up green, the 2008 traffic report seems to think that is a re-directed PDF file (I failed to see where issue was, and the Bing map (which seems fine to me), but I will not fail the article based upon them.
That should do it, seems like minor changes to make, and I will place this on hold. This is a well-written article, and I look forward to passing it.Neonblaktalk - 18:16, 2 June 2013 (UTC)reply
My area of concern were addressed, and yes, apparently the non-breaking spaces were definitely there, sorry about that. Again, great job, I'll move forward with promotion.Neonblaktalk - 00:30, 3 June 2013 (UTC)reply
