Fails WP:N. Only one link of any relevance was found on Google, to an article in the local newspaper, which is behind a paywall. Other than that, this article has no notability whatsoever. -happy5214 17:14, 11 November 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep. I'll set aside the WP:USRD/NT notability guideline that all state highways are inherently notable. I have reason to believe this particular route is part of an early alignment of US 50 and the Lincoln Highway between Carson City and Lake Tahoe. I don't currently have resources in front of me to support this, but would like the opportunity to expand the article when such information becomes available. --  LJ  ↗  19:44, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I found this map of the Lincoln Highway, and NV-705 was indeed part of it. If you can expand it sufficiently, then keep; otherwise merge. I will not hesitate to withdraw this nomination if improvements to the article can demonstrate that it deserves to stand alone. -happy5214 20:00, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the find. I will try to add some detail to the article in the next couple days. --  LJ  ↗  20:55, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Expansion of article completed. Hopefully that will be enough to establish satisfy the notability concern. --  LJ  ↗  05:54, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Satisfies me. I now withdraw my nomination. -happy5214 09:45, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep The highway has a significant history as part of US 50 and the Lincoln Highway and has sufficient coverage. TheCatalyst31 Reaction•Creation 06:03, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep—per above.  Imzadi 1979  →   13:29, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - State highways are notable. If Nevada has a large number of routes under one mile, then this can be merged to a list.  Dough 48  72  16:39, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
