Hampton has a well-established public transport system consisting of 12 rail lines and 8 tram routes.

The actual company that runs the trains is known as TransHampton and the trams are run by GreenStar. These are official transit maps. All lines except Hoddletown & Eastcape terminate at St. Margarita Station (Hoddletown terminates at...

Southarm Reclamation

By ROFLyoshi,

Komurat is tiny. The city was starting to build up & the island holds over 7,000 sims. People were starting to feel cramped in. They needed more space. This is present -day Komurat. The eastern area was being zoned for higher density, but the western area (the rich area) stayed low density. There was a demand for more land, so the government desegnated an area to the south of the city. The land was raised. The new land will form a sheltered area which can be developed into a port. The rim of the area was...

Currently, Hampton has a ring road running around its western area. It starts at Tottenham Hwy (Route 6) & runs to the Southern Hwy (Route 1). It has intersections with Westgate Rd (Route 18), Highbury Rd (Route 64) & Southern Fwy (M1). It bears the designation M20. As you can see by the above picture, the Ring Road comes to a dead end at Southern Hwy. The Pawton Bypass is a small stretch of Freeway that intersects with the Newport Hwy (Route 4) at three places (Markstown, Pawton & Springwood). It also...

The only ways out of the city is along the Carter Hwy & the Komurat railway line. This is the...

A look at Hampton City

By ROFLyoshi,

Hampton City is the oldest & largest city in Manningham. It was founded in March 1871 after a shipload of settlers arrived at Cobalt Landing. The city was founded by John Cobalt. Cobalt was the first to explore the Dark Lake area (West Coast Manningham had been discovered in the 17th Century). 6 months earlier, he had set foot on the Western Shore at what is now known as October Landing. The city has since expanded, with a distinct downtown & suburbs mainly to the north. (The region to the West is known as...
