If SCS adds Cody, then they also need to add delivery points for Yellowstone National Park, and be able to Discover it too. All there is now is a road to nowhere. People there at the Park need to eat and drink. ;) Also add ALT 14 too.

Well according to Davido, he mostly had newbies on his Wyoming team. So technically, US-14 could be done by anyone on that Wyoming team. US-14 is more of everything that is already in Wyoming. Mountains, lots of trees and open rolling hills.

I suspect US-2 to WA-20 are Montana roads. They should have really been done by the Idaho team. But in general, yes there are a ton of roads that could be added. On average 2-3 per state.

I think those roads would be given to the Idaho DLC though, not Montana.

The part west of Sandpoint should definitely be part of the Idaho DLC. I could see them adding it at the same time as the Montana DLC is released though.

I hope US-2 will make it into the game. Not only the Montana part, because that's actually a no-brainer. But also the Idaho part and the Washington part of the US-2... All the way to Duluth, MN, and Saint Ignace, WI.

Montana as in comes when Montana comes. I agree WA-20 and US-2 should be part of the Idaho dlc but when Idaho was made WA-20 was completely ignored and that baffled me. The time to make it right is with Montana but lock it to Idaho. I don't understand that miss. There is a solid chance that US-2 continues with Montana and we'll be forced to go from Kalispell to Sandpoint to CDA to Spokane just to get to Coleville and Omak. That makes zero sense.

It would also add a lot of value to the Washington DLC I think. Colville is a town I rarely visit, mostly because it's in a corner of the map, and having that connection to Sandpoint would make it much better.
The same can be said about Sandpoint, as it would be in a same position as Colville if Montana releases with the US-2 only heading east.

Bedavd wrote: 24 Sep 2021 18:35 They haven’t really added any new roads outside of the CA rebuild since that Nevada/Utah connection to Cedar City which was a little over a year ago.
We also got the big missing stretch of US 191 (between I-40 and US 60) at the same time. Both of those were in 1.38. Before then, we got OR 58, the real CA 299, and the last stretch of OR 140 in 1.35.

And while I wouldn't say any of this is absolutely guaranteed, there are at least a couple more new roads implied by usa.dds at some point. In particular, most of US 26 in Oregon, most of US 95 in western Nevada, and -- though it's probably related to the rework -- US 50 in California.

A short time ago I did research on the national park in economic terms. I suggest reading the modest survey, please. Maybe there are interesting things in terms of economics. And nothing replaces you English-speaking Native Americans helping with the park's economic research. Link: viewtopic.php?f=139&t=263551&start=70

There really is a demand for: food, mineral water, fuel inside, road machinery (DLC VOLVO MACHINES).

Having driven I-80 across Wyoming a few times now, I think I would dare say that the traffic merging is improved in Wyoming compared to other states. When I was driving along I-80, I would see cars and trucks come onto the Interstate from an on ramp, they would merge in without braking, and then quickly get up to speed. I never had to change lanes or turn off my cruise control once on my many trips between Cheyanne and Evanston.
