If you are interested, there is already a community of users who are roadfans or who edit articles about roads, just like you! Stop by any of these WikiProjects — WP:HWY (worldwide), WP:CRWP (Canada), WP:INR (India), WP:UKRD (United Kingdom), or WP:USRD (United States) — and contribute. There is a wealth of information and resources for creating a great article. If you have questions about any of these WikiProjects, you can ask on each project's talk page, or you can ask me!

If you like communicating through IRC, feel free to ask questions at #wikipedia-en-roads as well. Here, there are several editors who are willing to answer your questions. For more information, see WP:HWY/IRC.

Also..

For 2010, the U.S. Roads WikiProject is working on reducing the number of stubs in the project. We are not focusing on writing new articles such as state-detail or county, secondary articles. We have articles on several critical topics that need to be expanded and cleaned up. Please help our project by expanding our existing articles. You can find more on our anti-stub initiative at Wikipedia:USRD/B#New_anti-stub_initiative. Thanks! --Rschen7754 03:12, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
