Cities Skylines: UK Edition

[Beardedgamer1981]

I have been away for a while as I started a new career as a Software QA Engineer. It was a significant change for me, and I had to focus on learning the ropes of my new role. But now I have some free time, and I decided to revive my YouTube channel and make a new journal. It’s a hobby, but I enjoy sharing my passion for city-building games. And what better time to do that than now, when Cities Skylines 2 is coming soon?

But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Let me tell you about my current project: Woodford County. This is a British-themed city that I am creating in Cities Skylines, using some fantastic mods and assets from the workshop. Before I show you some screenshots, let me give you some background information about this county and its towns.

Woodford County is a fertile area with plenty of farmland and woodland. Most of the towns started as small farming villages but grew over time as they embraced agriculture as their primary industry. However, not everyone is happy with this status quo. Some people in the county want to make it more eco-friendly and sustainable, while others want to attract more tourists and newcomers to showcase the beauty and charm of living here.

The culture and lifestyle of Woodford County are a mix of old and new. Some people are still stuck in the 90s or 2000s, while others are more progressive and open-minded. This county has a lot of diversity and variety, making it exciting and lively.

The future and goals of Woodford County are not clear yet. Many challenges and opportunities are ahead, and I need your help to make the best decisions for this county. I want to recruit some board members who can assist me with planning, budgeting, and managing the projects that will shape the destiny of Woodford County.

But enough talking for now. Let me show you some pictures of what I have done so far. Here are some images of Woodford County that I created (( See attached photos))

I hope you like what you see and will join me in creating Woodford County in Cities Skylines. Stay tuned for more updates, and watch out for videos on my YouTube channel coming soon, but I am more than happy to write about my journey for now.

Woodford County High School: A Community in Crisis or a Community in Progress?

Hello, fellow Woodford County residents! I’m thrilled you are interested in our county and its development. I have some exciting news and some urgent issues to share with you.

As you may have heard, one of the high schools in our county has been a hot topic in the community lately. Some people see it as a great asset, while others see it as a significant problem. Let me tell you why.

The school is modern, spacious, and well-equipped with state-of-the-art facilities. It offers various courses and extracurricular activities, providing students a well-rounded education. We opened a few new five-side pitches for the residents to enjoy today. The pitches are nestled in a verdant oasis just a stone’s throw away from the high school, with plenty of green space and scenic views. They are perfect for a quick game, providing a safe and fun environment for people of all ages to stay active and healthy.

Sounds great, right? Well, not everyone thinks so. Some parents and neighbours have raised concerns that the building and the surrounding area are overcrowded and unsafe. They say the school needs more space to accommodate the growing number of students and staff. They also say that some homes must be demolished to make room for the expansion.



This has sparked a heated debate in the community. What should we do about the school? There are two main options:

• Expand the school on its current site. This would mean:
  • More facilities and opportunities for students and residents
  • Less disruption and cost than relocating
  • Some homes being destroyed, and some people being displaced
  • Less green space and more traffic congestion
• Relocate the school to another site. This would mean:
  • A new location with more space and potential
  • More time and money are spent on planning and building
  • No homes are being demolished, and no people are being evicted
  • More green space and less traffic congestion

What would you do if a school expansion project threatened your home? How would you feel if your child had to change schools because of a relocation plan? These are not easy questions to answer.
