Infobox[edit]

The infobox might not be complete, but it is accurate (please disregard my edit summary). Dirtydan667 08:30, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Split[edit]

Northwest Highway is a road that Loop 12 happens to run along. After losing its Loop 12 designation in the east at Buckner Boulevard, it continues east to Belt Line Road in Mesquite. In the west, after it loses the Loop 12 designation at Walton Walker, it continues west into Irving where it becomes Carpenter Freeway ( SH 114).

Likewise, Ledbetter Drive continues to the west after it loses its designation to S Walton Walker Boulevard west past Duncanville Road and then north to Kiest Boulevard (SH Spur 303).

Anyway, these roads themselves are separate entities.. drumguy8800 C T 22:05, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Oppose. The roads themselves aren't notable enough without the Loop 12 designation. If anything use {{main}} to link to those articles, but this article should remain intact. --Holderca1 17:24, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. There is more to Loop 12 than NW Hwy and Ledbetter: Buckner and Walton Walker. I don't think breaking up the article would be a disservice, and each of those roads is not very significant in and of itself. 68.95.142.239 01:28, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. The other portions of Northwest Highway are also state roads, which would have their own entries, and Ledbetter Drive outside of Loop 12 is a local road of no significance. 160.147.240.6 12:48, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Photo Request[edit]

I live in the area and would be happy to take photos for the article. Any idea of what specific things should be photographed (Major intersections, Long shots of the road, etc.) I'll probably do some this weekend if people will let me know what they want to see.

I've attached the 75 & Loop 12 (Northwest Highway) picture to the article. Removing the photo request. If people want more intersections, ask. Hasteur (talk) 23:51, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment comment[edit]

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Texas State Highway Loop 12/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

There are inline external links that I'm assuming are being used as references.. that needs to be fixed, there's no mention of when the highway was first built/conceived.. the article needs a photograph and the article needs an infobox. drumguy8800 C T 18:13, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Dallas" on map[edit]

On the complete article page, the word "Dallas" appears on the left edge of the map, outside the city limits. If you click on the map, "Dallas" appears in the correct spot. Would someone with proper expertise please fix that? ManlyMatt (talk) 02:59, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
