UK Road Project
All assets created for this project have been put together in the 'UK Road Project Collected' collection.

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

Map Theme
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.

Props Pack
All roads have custom road markings, signs and props that appear automatically depending on context and junction settings. These include UK signs, traffic lights, roadside props 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.

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.

To deactivate 'Traffic Lights' at junctions turn them off in the 'Traffic Routes' 'Junctions' info panel.

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.

As the roads vary in width some buildings may spawn with a gap to the road. I recommend using the Move It mod to bring them closer to the pavement. To have a realistic variation in road widths this is unavoidable, sorry!

Details
This pack contains:

1. 3 lane, 15m: Roundabout
2. 4 lane, 18m: Roundabout
3. 3 lane, 15m: Split
4. 6 lane, 2 way, 23m: Centre Line
5. 6 lane, 2 way, 25m: Centre Chevron
6. 6 lane, 2 way, 26m: Grass Verges
7. 6 lane, 2 way, 26m: Plain Median
8. 6 lane, 2 way, 26m: Tree Lined
9. 6 lane, 2 way, 28m: Bike Lanes
10. 6 lane, 2 way, 28m: Parking
11. 8 lane, 2 way, 30m: Bus Lanes

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

The roundabout roads are specifically for creating realistic roundabouts (duh!). They don't have zoning, road signs, props or pedestrians on the inner pavement. They do have street lights and chevron signs in the middle.

The split road is designed for creators that wish to have split lanes at junctions or roundabouts where six lane roads divide into to separate parts. This would require theMove It mod.

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

So, for example, a search for 'UKR LR 6L' will find all the six lane large roads.

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.

struggling to get slip roads to connect properly - one did it, but all the others act like it's a 6 lane normal road, not a 3 lane motorway, so the median gets tarmac and cars from both directions can take the slip. just don't know how the one that does work is different. any ideas?

- found it, use TMPE Lane Arrows to set the slip roads to only feed in

@dxjs123 The road markings are part of the textures so cannot be changed without amending all roads - this isn't something that I would do. They were designed to work best with the UK Roads map theme which has a road texture that I considered to be 'most British'.

I like these roads,and these roads are great,but there is an issue that the lane lines are not visible when the road color is light(such as RGB=127,127,127),so could please fix it?or maybe something I ignore to subscribe? thank you!

@[USVB] KeiwaM You can unsubscribe the cat’s eyes and they’ll work just fine.

Is it possible to use the roads without the cat's eyes? Either by a setting or unsubscribing from the pack?
