Proposing to fix bad edit by User:Glenn L on 26 January 2012
The change was from "high standards" to "highway standards" in the first paragraph, which turned a reasonably coherent article into meaningless gibberish and made the article redundant vis-a-vis the existing article on highways. User:Glenn L appears to be ignorant of how different types of highways are classified.
A highway is not necessarily a super two. The point of a "super two" classification is that the term refers to a highway built to fairly high standards that come close to but do not quite meet standards for a controlled-access highway because the highway only has two lanes, one in each direction. For example, Interstate 93 is a "super two" and not a regular Interstate Highway because it has only two lanes and an Interstate Highway is supposed to have a minimum of four lanes, two in each direction.
An example of one definition of "super two" can be found here. --Coolcaesar (talk) 21:17, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
- Wow... this was nearly nine YEARS ago. If you want to fix my very old edit, you are free to do so. —Glenn L (talk) 05:26, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
Proposed merge

There are two articles (super two and two-lane expressway) that both reference what is essentially a two-lane limited-access road (one in each direction). Because the two articles are largely duplicative, the super two article should be merged into the two-lane expressway article; the title, two-lane expressway, is more descriptive and obvious to a general reader than super two.

- Support - amazingly I was literally just coming to the talk page here to suggest this myself, and for the same reason. Too much overlap, and "super two" is the generally-used term for a two-lane expressway. - The Bushranger One ping only 22:43, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
Oppose- See Talk:Two-lane expressway. --Coolcaesar (talk) 03:00, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
- The only thing I see there is an assessement of the 'differences' that is very US-centric? - The Bushranger One ping only 05:27, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
- Support. I have refreshed my memory on this more carefully and reluctantly support the proposed merger. Yes, a "super two" under the definition as linked above on this talk page is a two-lane expressway, strictly defined. However, I maintain my longstanding position that two-lane freeway and two-lane expressway are not the same thing and really should be the subject of separate articles. The first is a controlled-access highway with two lanes and no center divider. The second is a limited-access highway with two lanes and no center divider, but on which some at-grade or right-in/right-out intersections are allowed. --Coolcaesar (talk) 18:41, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
- Support - It is almost the same thing. Cwater1 (talk) 03:34, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
