---Update---

Timberville was set up in the late 1700's to provide lumber for the growing capitol. It was built first around the mill operated by Calhr Lumber Co. later dubbed the Royal Calhr Lumber Co.. Later in 1729 a large church was added which drew city expansion south. In the later 1800's after timber started depreciating in value, the city deversified to other manufacturies although the backbone of these industries remains the lumber sector. Much of the cleared land by this time was also converted to farmland, creating a large farming community as well. In 1909 it became the capitol of the newly created SW Quadrant of the Imperial Capitol District to better serve local needs. In the same year there was a large expansion of the rail network that allowed the city to expand further. The last event of signifigance happened in 1965, when the Imperial Bypass 23 (Locally known as the ditch) was constructed along with a small airport.

Current city stats --- Res. --- 53,000

---Com.--- 12,000 jobs

---- Ind.---- 16,000 jobs

Here is the transportation map of the area. The red highway through the centre of Timberville is Imperial Bypass 23.

And an overveiw of the city...

Here is a shot of downtown, the church is in the centre. To the left is central station and you can catch a glimpse of the mill to the north. The park to the south is Calhr lake park which is over 100 years old. It is a popular place to walk or take a refreshing swim and is right next to parliment. The large tower to the north is home to the offices of the Royal Calhr Lumber Co..

And another of downtown. Sunday's parking is full!

Heres a picture of parliment overlooking the park. Its just over 100 years old.

Here is a closer picture of the mill that started it all.

A picture of Imperial Bypass 23.

The easttside of the city and a few of the windmills that help power the city.

More of the eastern side of the city.

Timberville Airport at the end of Imperial Bypass 23,

Southern subburbs.

And the only residential northern development right beside the industrial park.

The railline running west.

Finally the industrial park.

The next update will centre around one of the smaller towns in the region. A little more... appealing then the above shot

Thanks to both of you

MTA3479--- The curved roads are part of the new NAM. There might be a seperate download for them on the ST exchange, thats where I get everything.

Stoney525--- Again with the NAM. You dont drag though, you have to use the puzzle peices provided. The avenue over the diagonal highway is a mix between avenue and one way road peices.
