Highway 95 (Old Cedar Town Freeway) Planned Expansion

Came to the realization that in order to expand outward from 555E to Intertown Highway 3 (Where the AlphaWorld Train System is), Alpine City needs an expansion. When I look at what can be done with what exists now, I think of what my RL hometown (Denver, CO) has in 6th Avenue (U.S. 6) & Colfax Avenue (U.S. 40)

Since the land on the other side of Retsmah's road at 555E is mine (I'm Lap Bander on AW), I figure there should be no problem with the process. However I have two plans to accomplish this

Plan A is as follows.....

* Keep the existing road WEST of 555E AS IS (A single lane highway in both directions) since there's just too much pre-existing stuff from other cits which simply can't deleted. On top of that, there's also parts of Elm Street (Which is a road I built) & Median Way (Which Cem laid down for some oddball reason & I STUPIDLY expanded east of Retsmah's road at 555E *Embarrassed Look*)

* Add a SIX LANE expansion to the highway (Three lanes in each direction) from 555E to 1000E

* Reduce the six lane highway down to FOUR lanes (Two lanes in each direction) from 1000E all the way out t5o the Scenic Transport LTD (And points beyond if anyone wants to take it over from there)

Plan B is as follows.....

* Keep the existing road WEST of 555E AS IS (A single lane highway in both directions) due to the reasons outlined above

* Add a SIX LANE expansion to the highway (Three lanes in each direction) from 555E all the way out t5o the Scenic Transport LTD

* Reduce the six lane highway down to FOUR lanes (Two lanes in each direction) from the Scenic Transport LTD to points beyond if anyone wants to take it over from there

Now of course the freeway will have to have the name adjusted (No problem) & I have yet to scout the area East of 555E so I know I'm bound to run into a few obtacles along the way which will have to be addressed as I go along (I'm hovering over the area as I post this) so I'll be posting a few follow-ups either here or on Twitter.

You'll also be able to watch live via the official Alpine City channel on Twitch TV as well

Either way, I'll keep you posted :)

EDIT Just finished scouting out the area & quickly discovered a few things.....

* I'm gonna have to swing the highway a bit to the West from as close to Retsmah's road as possible to avoid MY OWN HOUSE on Briarwood *EEK* (I want the highway to be SOUTH of my house :D )

* I'm gonna have to find a way to snake it around the Crash District (This is where the long planned VirtualOne Meemorial Hospital will come in handy :D )

* I'm gonna have to find a way to telegram SparrowKnight to see if he/she can run the highway though his/her build (Which doesnn't cover as much ground where I'm figuring I'll run into it)

* I'll have to get to work building the Hamsterville Boulevard Station for the Scenic Transport LTD
