Double Nickels?

WTH? I've never heard this name for the 55 before. It is not what it is generally referred to. I will edit this to change the Double Nickels mention to more rarely, because I don't know where this was even said before. Theunknown42 22:11, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

I actually hear the "double nickel" reference often by a few local traffic reporters. I suppose they think it's clever but not particularly smart IMO.

- Linked. --Rs chen 7754 23:59, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
there are sone bare urls used as citations. e.g. [1], [2] and [3] These need to be formated.
I have made a few edits which you are free to change: [4]
That's all. Good work, and on hold.

lede

Due to congestion, several alternatives are being discussed to expand the freeway portion past its current end in Newport Beach.

what is the time frame for "everal alternatives are being discussed to expand the freeway portion "

See below. --Rs chen 7754 20:35, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

History

"In April 2007, the Orange County Transportation Authority approved funds to study the feasibility of extending the Costa Mesa Freeway south to 17th Street via tunnels or flyover ramps."

Is this the "alternatives ... being discussed" in the lede?
what is the outcome of this study, since this is over five years later?

Yes, they're the same. Do you think I should be more specific in the lead? I didn't want to verbatim copy it... --Rs chen 7754 20:35, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

citations

This citation still needed fixing:[5]
I attempted to fix it but it's not quite the format you've been using. Might want to check it.

Fixed, but generally citation formatting is left to FAC. --Rs chen 7754 20:35, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

I also linked flyover. ok?
- Should be fine. --Rs chen 7754 20:35, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
