German Cities Rework Discussion (Post-Austria)

[Bandit & The Snowman]

So SCS was accurate before reality was

[xXCARL1992Xx]

and i pretty much doubt the new bridge will be ready before SCS touches anything there, 2026 is the estimate, i would say +1 or 2 years, they rebuild 2 little bridges near me, not even 300m both combined and it will be over 3 years if they are done and the way they did it was complex also because they couldnt just cut of the road like they did with the A45

Planned bridge demolition.
There is, or has been bridge rebuilds north of that bridge.

A45, they seem to have not had any other alternatives?
Altho I read that some want a temporary bridge built asap.

[Bandit & The Snowman]

Well, the inhabitants of Lüdenscheid specifically because all that traffic that used to go over that bridge has been rolling through their city for 1.5 years.

[Shiva]

Bandit & The Snowman, yeah, they want a temporary bridge, since over a year ago, as you wrote.

[gaillard]

1.5 years? That's nothing, the time needed for the urgent initial studies, project building, call for offers, and new elections.
You should live a little more west bound and up. Meanwhile, everybody and the whole industry is going through the village streets.

And when everything is finished and polished, they decide to build a 4-lanes ring around the village. The traffic, you know...

It is literally coming for 1.48 update!

They mentioned there are "still a couple of locations" yet to be announced with regards to the Germany city reworks. So sounds like we're looking at 4 cities again, which is great progress.

I'm going to wait to reset the poll until the 4th city has been announced

Kiel is almost certainly a lock for 1.48 given that we have Plon coming, so Hamburg makes the most sense for the 4th city. Not a guarantee but if they're reworking that entire region might as well get the big boy out of the way too.

ETS2 map still has so many outdated parts it should get map reworks every update (and with exception of 1.46 it did for the last 2 years - 1.43 had Lyon, 1.44 Austria, 1.45 Hannover and 1.47 Erfurt, Frankfurt, Nurnberg and Stuttgart, but rework team should keep at least that pace).
Rostock looks great, it seems these new reworks (starting with Austria) ditched "only truck accessible areas" design philosophy, which is good. I hope Berlin gets reworked in that update as well, but that's might be too large city to be included with smaller ones and probably should be in a one large update, Kiel is much more probable.
Ruhr Valley might (and probably should) be reworked together with Benelux - this will might produce a more coherent final result but on the other hand it almost certainly will be one of the most challenging rework in ETS so probably an "all hands on deck" situation.
