Necropolis
My bus System in Anchorage, Alaska continues to grow. This map looks a little different from my other one of Anchorage becasue now im playing on Anchorage by Drunken Apple instead of Anchorage by NHP. My Bus routes now connect to Spenard district along the route going though Arctic Blvd. in time ill get some ridership numbers there. North Campbell lake is where most of my routes are so its the most built up. its numbers grew even larger since my last update here which was Anchorage People mover Overview 4....

In this expansion to the Route 7 Line my bus line has come to within walking distance of the site for where the old town center for Spenard city used to be. the amount of bus trafic in the city district called Airport Terminal to which Spenard is a part of has exploded in ridership numbers. if this expansion continues i can make the line continue past spenard to eventually reach downtown Anchorage district which is the next District in the inbound direction after having passed though the Spenard and...

Fairbanks overview 4

In this update to the Fairbanks mass transit you can see that i completed the Grey Line. The Grey Line is the northern most of the Bus routes. There is only a small section of the North College District that has a bus route so i think that its system has already reached a peak in maximum volume. the districts of College and Downtown on the other hand have much of there districts covered by Bus lines so there volumes are stageringly higher than North college. Im having a problem with the district of Farmers...

In this picture you see most of the South Eastern quadrant of the Fairbanks Sim City4 region. my computer crashed a while back so i need to recreate all of my City journals. this picture shows the current progress in the far south east corner of Fairbanks ,Alaska. None of the transit route are highted but this region later becomes very significant area that the mass transit network covers. The green Line ,bus line is the only bus that connects to lands beyond this sim city region and its exit from the...

The District of West Juneau (Downtown) builds a new 2x2 sized Bus station. after this feat the Bus Volume in this district eventually grew to 490 units of volume. In real life All 3 Juneau bus lines use this bus station. Even the branch that goes across the river on the 10th street (Douglas) bridge. that route is called the Douglus/West Juneau Route. the other 2 route go north bound to mendenhall valley they are called the airport express and also the mendenhall/University route.

Statistics District name......Current....All time high West Juneau...........490.........490 N.Fish creek.............275........275 Mendenhall Valley.....890........900 Lemon Creek............200.........200

This is the Current state of the Mass transit system in Fairbanks ,Alaska. its not nearly as finished as Juneau is. but on the other hand it is way more built then my Anchorage Mass transit network. one of the flaws of the Fairbanks map is is that its not very detailed. im not going to be able to put in every street in the downtown area. a few of the streets will have to be removed because theres no enough space inbetween to have decent sized city blocks. also im not going to bother naming places south of...

Iv continue to Develop the Bus System. Dimond Center now has much more Mass transit traffic then before. its grown from a sleepy hamlet to a bustling town of 1000 people. Mass transit in Dimond center is at a all time high. The District of Campbell Lake is decreasing in Bus Traffic because i removed a Bus Line and now its traffic is more like the real world Version. Airport Terminal is Un-Finished its projected that it could reach 1000 Bus traffic but its difficult to plot the courses of really long Bus...

As you can see in this picture i have put alot of work into the Juneau Mass transit network. so far i have 3 sections that do not touch each other. its my dream to eventually conect them all. Juneau alaska is the largest of the 3 Alaskan transit networks i have built. in real life Anchorage is the largest. i have been working on the Juneau map for 2 years since 2011.

I have built the roads for this line but so far no development. the actual amount of tiles for the university proper bay was like a hundred local tiles so it would take some planing. im going to use New york cities Lincoln Center. or whatever that thing is called. there will also be ordinary college buildings plus i would have to figure out where the university gift goes. I have used the Edmonton water prop on the Auke Lake water tiles because they are above sea level. Also i wated to point out that...

i built a safeway store on the actual spot in west fairbanks. The name of the buses are redline and blueline both go in opposite directions around fairbanks and encircle it. i also added part of the international airport but its only one piece. the redline and blue line bus lines are the focus here. on the juneau map its a specific bus line to go to former auke bay census designated place (cdp) ,alaska but theres a safeway store in juneau international airport city tile near there.
