This article is much closer to start than it is to B, but that's why the C-class designation was created. The sections are all incomplete, as is the lead. CL — 05:10, 25 June 2008 (UTC)reply
The sentence "Apache Trail then steers away from the Salt River and passes through the town of Tortilla Flat." sounds awkward.
The sentence "The Apache Trail connected an area east of Phoenix as early as 1925, where it connected the Old Spanish Trail and Roosevelt Lake with an unpaved road, following much of the modern route." needs to be reworded.
"The SR 88 designation was received by the following year" sounds awkward.
Can some details about the physical surroundings of the route be added to the lead?
Can the original eastern terminus of SR 88 be mentioned in the lead?
Looking at Google Maps, it appears SR 88 becomes paved again before it comes to its terminus at SR 188. Can this be mentioned in the route description?
"The section of the route east of Canyon Lake is part of the National Forest Scenic Byway system.", what is the name of this byway?
"The Apache Trail connected an area east of Phoenix as early as 1925, where it connected the Old Spanish Trail and Roosevelt Lake with an unpaved road, following much of the modern route." can you indicate the location where it intersected Old Spanish Trail?
I will put the article on hold for fixes to be made. Dough4872 01:59, 1 April 2012 (UTC)reply
I believe I have fixed all the issues. Is there anything else? — PCB 00:15, 4 April 2012 (UTC)reply

Date of construction
Road was not built in the twenty’s. It was built shortly after the turn of the century by the city of Mesa to facilitate movement of supplies and equipment for the construction of Roosevelt Dam.
