 *  Economically, it is a vital link as it provides access through the Wheatbelt and Mid West to the resource rich regions of the Pilbara and Kimberley. ...I'd just say, " Economically, it provides vital access through the Wheatbelt and Mid West to the resource rich regions of the Pilbara and Kimberley." (let facts speak for themselves)

 *  with the road widened, turning and overtaking lanes constructed, and improved street lighting - it flow smoother if all three were passive verbs, so "with the road widened, turning and overtaking lanes constructed, and street lighting improved"

 * Work on Great Northern Highway has remained ceaseless - odd construction..plenty of options for rewording to make more natural-sounding.
 * Could you elaborate, or provide examples? - Evad37 &#91;talk] 09:51, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
 * "Work on Great Northern Highway has been continuous", "Work on Great Northern Highway has continued without pause/gone on without pause" are a couple of permutations that come to mind....Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 13:43, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
 * , changed remained ceaseless → been continuous - Evad37 &#91;talk] 13:51, 10 August 2014 (UTC)


 *  A 21-kilometre-long (13 mi) section of between New Norcia and Walebing is scheduled to been reconstructed between mid-2014 and 2016 - err, could remove the "of" and ..."been" to "be"?
 * - Evad37 &#91;talk] 09:51, 10 August 2014 (UTC)


 *  As of 2014, the project is awaiting federal approvals - should "approvals" be plural?
 * - Evad37 &#91;talk] 09:51, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm taking that as a "yes" then....Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 13:36, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Woops, yes, I meant to say that the source uses the plural form - Evad37 &#91;talk] 13:44, 10 August 2014 (UTC)


 * No blackspots or historical horror accidents...?
 * Nothing beyond the routine stuff covered by WP:NOTNEWS - Evad37 &#91;talk] 09:51, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
