Talk:Toll road
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Structure of article
This article has become too long. I would suggest that most of the USA section should be moved to a separate article on 'Turnpikes (USA)', leaving a relatively brief account of the subject here and a cross-reference. Similarly the section on the UK, which is largely historical and partly concerned with other issues of road maintenance would be better as a separate article Turnpike Roads (Britain). I have written a brief article, but the account fo the subject here is more detailed. Accordingly some fo the section here needs to be merged with that. I have not attached a merge templete to the section, because there seems to be a fault in Wiki at present. Peterkingiron 23:28, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

- I thought the same thing. I've made a start on reducing the size of the article. So far I've split the US section into a new article, Toll roads in the United States. The article is still too big and overwhelmed by the National toll-road differences section. Maybe this whole section should be split out (leaving a summary). I'll continue to split the article up. Instead of picking through this talk page to split it accordingly I've archived the lot. The Talk page(s) of the new article(s) can link to this archive. Jimp 15:18, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
- I've split the article up further into two more new articles: Toll roads in Europe and Toll roads around the World. Jimp 01:12, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
