Hello, @JuniperChill: I will be reviewing this article for the January 2025 Backlog Drive. This is an ongoing project so I hope that future edits will match the quality of a GA. BigChrisKenney (talk) 07:44, 6 January 2025 (UTC)

Intro

Added a comma you may wish to review.

History

Early upgrades

I removed the conversion template as it was causing 'mile' to change to 'miles' which would have been incorrect.

I made some edits you may wish to review.

Speed cameras

Good!

Road saftey statistics

Good!

Construction

Announcement

Good!

Completed section (2015-2021)

Removed the conversion template. I made some edits you may wish to review.

Proposed sections

I made a few edits you may wish to review.

Tomatin to Moy

"Some preparation works to this section include trees being cut down and a new railway bridge on the Highland Main Line, which were done in 2021 and 2022, ahead of the main construction work."

• What about the new railway bridge? Was one built? A little clarification here would go a long way, I believe.

"This stretch is expected to start construction by the end of 2024."

• I would consider removal of this sentence as later the paragraph states: 'expected to begin main construction in spring 2025.'

Tay Crossing to Ballinluig

Good!

Table

Good!

Delays

I made some edits you may wish to review. I added a link and removed a duplicate link that you may wish to review.

This first paragraph says the same thing as a previous section Construction -> Proposed sections. I would suggest removing one or the other so that there isn't duplicate information.

Criticism

I made some edits you may wish to review.

Sources

7 is dead, but the archive works.

9 the same.

The rest look good.

Overall, not too much needs to be changed to get this article to GA status, but a little work needs to be done. I will give you time to review and respond to my comments before posting a final assesment. BigChrisKenney (talk) 08:39, 6 January 2025 (UTC)
