Love all the ideas so far, only thing I would add is to get rid of that Tunnel below Carlisle, and maybe add a town or two in the gap between there and Manchester. Workington maybe? Have a good A66 across from the M-Way

If I remember rightly building cities up to a good standard can take 4-5 days and usually need a decent population size unless it's remote like Geilo in Norway, but if I had to pick three or four cities or remote towns:

1) Inverness, Scotland
2) Stornoway, Scotland
3) Holyhead, Wales
4) Bristol... am I wrong or isn't this missing from the game? Might be a nice addition to that M4/M5 junction you mentioned ScuL...

Although you know one thing the modders should try?........... Spaghetti Junction: :lol:

:D :D :D

Inverness would certainly be worth doing , road almost there just need the A9 running up (and perhaps continuing onto Thurso or am I just being greedy?).

If I were to mod it I'd have to cheat and make the traffic do an infinite loop! ^o^

I thought that Inverness and then Thurso or Stornoway would be a good idea because of all the mountain roads and the Highlands - how can you have Scotland in a game without the Highlands!?!?!? :D After all, everyone who followed the mod wanted the mountain roads in Norway so badly, so Inverness and Thurso would be a fantastic add. ou could then have the Scottish Gaelic bilingual signs too, have a complete Scotland.

Now a ferry to the Shetland Islands... that would be greedy! :D

Can they only be found in the Highlands? Or also in the major cities?

The Gaelic signs are found mostly on the main roads like the A9 And The A96 between Inverness And Aberdeen. But are found in some major towns and cities like inverness and aviemore on the a9 down to perth then onto edinburgh.

#4 – Nelson’s Column
#5 – London Eye
#6 – Houses of Parliament
#7 – Buckingham Palace

Just an idea
