Welcome to the UK Road Project. This pack is one in a series that recreates UK roads as closely as the game will allow.

This motorways pack has taken far longer to create than expected and I've had to learn new techniques and make some compromises. The important thing to me was to make the motorways two direction (rather than the vanilla individual carriageways). This is not easy to do effectively, but I think I've succeeded.

There are two elements that differ from the vanilla highways.

Firstly, most signs are not automatic as getting them to only appear for slip roads on one side isn't possible. The overhead gantry signs, exit markers and other direction signs are available in the UK Road Project: Motorway Props Pack.

Secondly, for junctions to work correctly the Traffic Manager: President Edition mod is necessary. It is not possible to stop vehicles crossing the central reservation to get to exits on the other carriageways (trust me, I have tried). Although you can use these roads without the mod it is best to use the TM:PE mod to connect the lanes at junctions to stop this behaviour (see images above). It may seem like a time consuming thing to do for each junction but compared to laying two carriageways and adjusting them to look like a motorway I think it's a time saver.

I have included a bespoke bridge for all motorways but have noticed that to get a curved bridge the Move It mod is necessary (again, see images above).

A map theme 'UK Road Project: Map Theme' has been created to improve the road and pavement textures and give them a more UK look. Other elements of the theme have also been 'improved' to give a more polished overall look. The theme doesn't have to be used but I highly recommend that it is for the complete experience. The road markings may not appear correctly with other themes.

All roads have custom road markings, signs and props that appear automatically depending on context and junction settings. These include UK signs, traffic lights, motorway start and end signs and street lights. These assets are available in the 'UK Road Project: Essential Props' pack. It is important to subscribe to this pack for the roads to appear correctly.

I have created an additional UK Road Project: Motorway Props Pack that contains various common signs and props found on UK motorways.

IMPORTANT: The road pack has cat's eyes built in to each road which will need to be subscribed to separately for them to show up in game.

For those who wish to detail the roads with the greatest realism additional prop packs are available with many of the UK road signs, road markings and props that don't automatically appear. See below!

For any props added manually I recommend using the Move It and Prop Line Tool mods.

I have aimed to keep the file sizes as small as possible but in order to give you the best UK roads the size may appear large. However, the roads share textures allowing the ]Loading Screen mod to share them in game and therefore reducing the load on your computer.

This pack contains:
1. 9m 1L1W slip road
2. 12m 2L1W slip road
3. 15m 3L1W slip road
4. 24m 4L2W motorway (no ground lights)
5. 24m 4L2W motorway with sound barriers (no ground lights)
6. 24m 4L2W motorway
7. 24m 4L2W motorway with sound barriers
8. 30m 6L2W motorway
9. 30m 6L2W motorway with sound barriers
10. 36m 8L2W motorway
11. 36m 8L2W motorway with sound barriers

Road texture: 1024 x 1024
LOD texture: 256 x 256

All files in this pack use the same naming structure to speed up Find It searches.
UKR (UK Road Project)
MW (Motorway)
1L, 2L, 3L, 4L, 6L or 8L (1, 2, 3, 4, 6 or 8 Lane)
1W or 2W (1 or 2 way)

So, for example, a search for 'UKR MW 6L' will find all the six lane motorways.

These roads have been created to allow both left and right hand drive roads in your cities. As they are UK roads I recommend using right hand drive, but I would, wouldn't I!

Please try this pack out and let me know, in the comments below, if you have any problems or suggestions.
