Ooh, nice - looks to be a promising update! Look forward to seeing it.

[SimCoug 5,973]

Great intersections! Did you use the RHW to make the right hand turn lanes?

[Ace3 1,209]

Cool Teaser! Please update as soon as possible

[vivapanda 422]

Cool construction!

@Sim_Link: And here is the update....

@SimCoug: No, those are the TULIPs that come with the NAM.

@1000000000000: I actually wanted to make the full update Wedesnday, but RL kept me realllllyyyyy busy both days.

@Vivapanda: Thanks!

First of all, which building are we talking about?

See if you can find it in this moasic:

[Durfsurn 539]

Looking good even in rain

[Schulmanator 5,799]

Sounds good... a welcome addition to the skyline.

[vivapanda 422]

Very interesting setup of the downtown!

Nice map - like that you include proposed extensions.

[packersfan 666]

Nice subway map. I need to do that for my metro! Always like a good subway map.

[vivapanda 422]

Great map, there are a lot of park and rides!

I really like the traffic maps you make, (wish I could do that xd). But are those maps based on the real transit maps you use in the game?

[Benedict 3,119]

New map looks good. I know that in-game you can do anything with the subway lines and they function well, but I doubt that in real life that line 6 would exist to connect 3 stations like that. The brown line would either go through all 3, or the red line would form a loop (replacing line 6) and not turn north.

Extra good job on the map. The transit system must dramatically reduce vehicular traffic and congestion. We have a limited park and ride system here and it is well used.

@Sim_Link:That's something new I have seen on RL maps but have decided to include here.

@Packersfan:Actually, it's not that hard, if you know how...

@Vivapanda:That's a very popular feature with my transit systems...

@Benedict:There are plans to eventually eliminate Line 6 and reroute Line 4 to Tranit Center via Line 1.

@Rewright:Even so, my cities still have a lot of traffic congestion.

Well, folks sorry for not updating lately-RL has kept me very busy. However, today I have a new moasic to show you all. You can see the MIT going through the area.

[vivapanda 422]

Great mosaic! though I'm usually not so fond of retaining walls they actually look not thát bad in this situation. Good luck with your real life!

[packersfan 666]

I know not too hard. I just mean I never really can figure out how they make it so stylized and simplified, haha.

[simlink 1,098]

Looks like a nice little area.

[Schulmanator 5,799]

Well done... a very realistic look.

[nathanthemayor 1,263]

@Vivapanda:Well, I made the retaining walls just for fun

@Packersfan:Thanks!

@Sim_Link:Thanks!

@Schulmanator:Thanks!

Well, click for full.

[Schulmanator 5,799]

Nooooooooooo! I have to pay toll again??!!

I am a little short this time... can I deposit an IOU?

[vivapanda 422]

It looks great! I always love mountain roads.

[SIMplemente 41]

What a great, brave and terrific work you did with your United Cities! Congratulations, and now let me start again with the 1st post, as I'm trying to learn something for my future cities. Thanks for sharing!

[simlink 1,098]

Nice tollway - toll booth or electronic tolls? If it is a both, pardon the u-turn but I missed the last exit before toll.

[nathanthemayor 1,263]

@Schulmanator:Well, toll isn't too expensive....

@Vivapanda:Where i live, I'm close to a lot of mountain roads...

@SIMplemente:Thanks!

@Sim_Link: This specifc tollway uses toll booths, although if you use EZ-Toll(Electronic way), that's also allowed on any tollway in the nation.

Well, today let's look at Tuscaroa City's freeway system, shall we?

Actual in-game shot(Note: I am aware I am not using seawalls. This city was built long before I started using seawalls.

[vivapanda 422]

This actually looks pretty good without sea walls

You are from Fresno weren't you? I've been there last summer holiday and there sure are a lot of beautiful mountain roads around there!

[simlink 1,098]

Looks good! Is this the city from a while back where you proposed several interchange redevelopments? The interchange near the large steel bridge looks familiar.

It's cool with or without sea walls.

Good work!
