Going on the Northern Bank
First of all, I'd like to say I was quite flattered with such positive comments, especially from well-known CJers as Blakeway, Schulmanator and TekindusT! Thanks!

Blakeway: Mountain suburb? Heheheh, thats a cool name!
While as seen in the last entry, the eastern area is quite low-density. The Northern Bank of the river is quite high density, with a more older neighbourhood feel. It is also home to the A-1 and the A-2 Freeways, of which meet in a giant double trumpet interchange (I will show this in its entirety later, all you get now is sneak peeks at little bits
), as well as the B-26.
Now for some pics!

Some modern Euro-styled apartment amongst some more traditional houses, overlooking the river.

The Blackmoor signature: Trees and parks at every turn amongst the buildings.

This bridge leads to the Middle Island. The island is a major congestion point, as many drivers converge onto St. Andrews Parade.

Middle Island. Today the traffic is a little better.

Ah! This is the A-2 crossing the river, heading west. The middle lane is used for continuing along the A-2 in a westerly direction, while the outer lane goes north/south on the A-1, or off onto St. Andrews Pde.

More interchangey goodness. To avoid weaving, it has 3 entry ramps and 4 exit ramps, instead of 2 of each on a normal interchange.

The buildings and the freeway.

A good photo to photoshop, maybe?

This inner-city neighbourhood can be quite congested at times.

Dun dun! Traffic!

A roads are the highest priority; they are not allowed to have any at-grade intersections. B roads are not allowed to have at-grade intersections, except with A roads. Here is an infamous example, the A-1/B-26 interchange.

Finally a nice nature shot to tie it all up.
Hope you enjoyed! Please comment!
