Preliminary Review by Robert Skyhawk
I have reviewed this article, and have found just a few things which I think should be fixed, detailed here:

''Note: "Done" and "Not done" status indicates whether an issue has been fixed. Once a particular issue has been addressed, editors are free to change this status and use this list as a checklist.''


 * Infobox:
 * The map could use a caption; it is a tad unclear at first which road is US-89.
 * I doubled the width of the red line; is it clearer now (and does it still need the caption)? --NE2 05:49, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Route description section:
 * Breaking this section into sub-sections would be a good organizational touch; how this would be done is up to the editor(s).
 * "US-89 enters Utah inside the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area..." Perhaps add "from the south" or something similar; technically the highway enters and exits the state from the north and south.
 * Done - Hope I did some justice to this article. CL — 05:11, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

For the most part, this looks like a very good article deserving of GA status. As a Utah resident, I believe this article accurately and thoroughly describes one of this state's major highways. When the above issues are cleared, please contact me on my talk page and I will happily resume the process. Robert Skyhawk (Talk) 01:10, 29 July 2008 (UTC)


 * It needs more details of the history, for instance the bypassing by I-70 in the Sevier Valley. I stopped work on it without finishing it, but will hopefully get back to it in the future. --NE2 01:32, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the improvements. Despite this lack in the History section, I believe this article is deserving of GA status. I will proceed to make the necessary changes. Congratulations to all involved editors. Robert Skyhawk (Talk) 19:06, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
