WikiProject Highways
[edit] Scope
This WikiProject aims primarily to standardize the format used in articles about highways, including freeways, expressways, throughways, and other major forms of road. A major part of this is the connectivity of highways and the analogous conectivity of their articles. The scope and aims of this project are likely to change in this early stage.
[edit] Parentage
The parent of this WikiProject is the WikiProject Transport.

[edit] Structure
My primary idea is to make highway articles as navigable as (and in some cases more navigable than) the highways themselves. The easier for a user to explore a highway system the better. In a really good system, users can enjoy virtual road trips. Continue discussion on the talk page. --Spikey 02:54, 28 Jan 2004 (UTC)
