Love the city, you have some really large parks, thats really good when I comes to children wanting to play outside so they want end up running and playing in the city streets. I would also love to see a closer look at your city.

    Update:

    Its been a while! My disk broke of all things! But now I got a new copy 4.gif

    This update looks at the far south west of Richmond. The area of Sharrow Vale. It is very built up and has expanded loads in recent years. A lot has happened from new highways to even a new subway opening!

    The Grand Sharrow Terminal on a grey day!

    Sharrow4.jpg

    The junction of Tayborough and Glen Oak Boulevards...

    Sharrow3.jpg

    Tayborough Gardens...

    Sharrow2.jpg

    Sharrow North station, even with 6 tracks congestion is a big problem!

    Sharrow1.jpg

    The first subway line in Sharrow Vale. Its links the two main rail lines together. This route was very busy with buses and cars so the city planners have taken transport below ground to help things out...

    Sharrow5.jpg

    More coming soon!

    P.s. Thanks for the comments 9.gif

    Update:

    Gainsborough

    Central Junction. This is a busy junction that links all the main lines together. It has expanded a lot since it first opened and has been grade separated!

    @ The Duke: Thanks for the comment! Yeah it is built in a similar style! I'm trying to re develop areas differently as I go through them etc

    Update:

    Ashbury!

    This is part of the inner urban area. Lots of tall buildings, busy roads and subways!

    Whole city view...

    Ashbury6.jpg

    Island crossing. The railways and roads are very busy as it is where all the lines come together is a bit of a bottle neck to cross the river...

    Ashbury5.jpg

    Some of the once outter suburbs have been left in their original state. Some smaller family homes are still surrounded by tall buildings...

    Ashbury1-1.jpg

    @ kakado_to_save: haha I'm glad!

    @ wwetom1: Yeah theres a lot of lights for a lot of sims 2.gif

    Update: Richmond/Sevenoaks

    Overview of Richmond, the central area of the city. This is where it all started!

    Richmond1.jpg

    Sevenoaks is a large inner suburb to the north east of Richmond. It has grown a lot from its small suburban start, but there has been trouble with crime in some areas! This area is no exception...(Bramwell)

    SevernOaks7.jpg

    Sevenoaks does have quite a few el lines. This is 86th Street station on the Central Line

    SevernOaks5.jpg

    Sevenoaks Royal Park Terminal...

    SevernOaks6.jpg

    Halstead Avenue local station, north of the Royal Park terminal

    SevernOaks1.jpg

    The new junction between the Sunset North Main Line and the branch line to Royal Park. This has always been very busy and at once point there were two level crossings with the roads! But due to overcrowding the roads have been put into tunnels and the rails separated...

    Sevenoaks regional airport...

     Super cities are fun to look at because there is a lot happening, and this is no exception. You also have done a extra nice job on the airline terminal ramp area. 44.gif

    @ rewright: I love making super cities! Never get bored of them! I'm glad you like it 1.gif

    Update: Andover!

    Andover is part of the Richmond urban area, and Andover alone has 700,000+ sims! The area has become very built up in recent years. The el network has been expanding and also the highway network. Many tall buildings have been built as undeveloped land vanishes...

    Riverside Heights has suffered a lot of social problems in the past, but since the 4 track main line opened, many middle class sims wanting to commute to Richmond have moved in...

    Update: Fulwood and Woodsmoor!

    Fulwood is in the far east of Richmond...For a long time not a lot happened here. Since then as jobs have increased, so has the population! The only problem with this is the traffic congestion, which now has become very bad on both the roads and rails!

    Fulwood1-1.jpg

    It may look a bit extreme, but it really is needed! The railway has been put into a tunnel, Letchworth and Industry Boulevards are now expressways and a second bridge has been built...

    Fulwood2-1.jpg

    Fulwood Central...A very busy rail terminal!

    Fulwood3-1.jpg

    Between Fulwood and Woodsmoor, the railways are used a lot! What was once a small two track line, has been upgraded to twelve tracks and is still in the red!

    The northern side of the line...(Fulwood)

    Fulwood4.jpg

    Southern side of the line...(Woodsmoor). An el line has also been built for local commuters to use...and that line is also very busy!
