Talk:U.S. Route 30 in Oregon

Rename?
Is there any reason this article shouldn't be redirected to U.S. Route 30 in Oregon and not the other way around, so it's consistent with all the other U.S. Route articles? Katr67 00:36, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Done. Katr67 23:28, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

History Section Needed
A history section needs to be included, especially indicating US 30's various alignments through Portland prior to the construction of the Fremont Bridge as well as its later realignment off of much of St. Helens Road and onto Yeon St. 4.243.206.19 04:27, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
