looking good.. well done
turn off all the layers that you do not need to see and just leave bottom layer, then use the address label to "SHOW" your signal (whatever you have called it) and see the signal track it will shine brightly as a highlight, you will then see if the ground plane is cohesive. Its all down to wether when you created the polygon you used the setting "orphans", difficult for me to see in the jpg at the moment(on a mini machine) wether this is the case.

You are better not to have orphans using a single ground plane , unless you are running out of ethcant
