• I imagine a feasible redirect based on the lead is Highway 2S.
• "St. Lawrence River Road" is in the infobox, is this another name for the parkway?
• "divided highway" is that "dual carriageway" where I come from? Is there a link for us non-experts?
• "use by cars between" just cars, or vehicles in general?
• "Thousands Islands" just the one thousand.
• "a bicycle trail and" in the lead and "A recreational trail follows" in the article...
• "Darlingside, Rockport, Narrows..." etc. I think it's permissible to relink this outside the lead.
• "and a left-hand exit provides"" overlinked.
• " depression relief" financial or emotional?
• Is "The Ontario Department of Highways" the same as/forerunner to Ministry of Transportation of Ontario?
• ""a two lane gravel " hyphenate two-lane here.
• " proper two lane undivided' similar. Also, similar to above, is an "undivided" road the same as a "single carriageway" where I'm from?
• "persuade the DHO to construct" what's DHO?
• "September 1, 1967 from" comma after year.
• "0.62" probably good enough to go to 0.6 to keep decimal places consistent in this case.
• "17 - Schedule" en-dash.
• Is TVO TVOntario?
• "Park - Getting " en-dash.
• Several of these spaced hyphens in the ref titles.
• Ref 27, use MOS:ELLIPSIS in the title.
• Note [a] is not referenced.
• "Thousand Islands Parkway - Length and Route" en-dash.

That's all I have here, it's on hold. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 12:44, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

So The St. Lawrence River Road was the historic name. I've added it into the lead and created a redirect for it as well as Highway 2S. For ref 27, the ellipses are as they are in the title, which seems correct based on MOS:ELLIPSES. See [1]. All other issues have been addressed (diff). - Floydian ^τ _¢ 15:25, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

So you have "10 Days... or Aug. 15... or... Well, 2-Lane Stretch on 401 Open Soon" and my reading of MOS:ELLIPSIS should make it "10 Days ... or Aug. 15 ... or ... Well, 2-Lane Stretch on 401 Open Soon", i.e. non-breaking spaces before each of the ellipses. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 15:59, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

The part that had me on the fence was whether that only applied to quotations. Somebody else's hill to die on though; change made. I've gone ahead and added alt text for the images as well FYI. - Floydian ^τ _¢ 18:33, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

Okay, cool. The MOS should apply to all aspects of the article really. SO, I'm happy now and promoting. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 08:27, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
