1. There is a mention that the route was originally a "gravel highway". The cited source (8) does indeed say that the route was to receive a new black-top pavement. Obviously, any road is initially unpaved, but is there any way to substantiate it being a
gravel road a
macadam road or any other type of unpaved road. If not, perhaps a generic "unpaved road" might be prudent choice of words?--

7.b. It was a shame that the article has no images, not even a map - even though that's not necessary for GA is none are available. Would you consider using at least a map for the infobox? If so, there's one at the commons (File:Ontario Hwy 90.gif) now.--

The article is a bit short, but it generally meets the GA criteria. There is a couple of things I'd like to have clarified, so I'll put this article on hold until then. Overall, good work.--

Thank you for the review :) To start, I've put your map into the article. I'm in the process of making a big map for all of Ontario that I can just cut and paste into .svgs, but that may be several months or more down the road. I've changed gravel to 'unimproved', as that is the term used on the map (improved or unimproved roads). Hopefully I will get up to Barrie before the snow falls to get a picture of the highway. I agree that it's not the most substantial article, but unfortunately there aren't any details I can think to add to improve that. A pretty boring highway in the scheme of things.
