The roadworker title will be given out from the PM or the MoI after a quick screening process of understanding of order of operations.

The first focus is to make USABLE roads, no more then 3-5 wide in any area until full connections are made. We do NOT need 10 wide stone roads due to asphalt arriving later in time.

There will be zoned areas for road payments, please pay attention to the zoning or you wont get payments for roads placed.

Doing mining/excavating/poor roads placement that results in extra work needing to be done in order to fix things, may result in a fine.

All roads MUST be supported. If an elevated bridge is needed it must be supported by stone building blocks of some kind at a maximum of 10 blocks (unless a specific design is approved) and roads that are elevated over the natural land should have guardrails as soon as possible.

Any holes under federal highways are to be avoided at all costs. There is plenty of crushed stone/dirt/sand available to fill in holes.

Any egregious mining under federal highways will result in removal of title and up to a fine where necessary to cover labor to fix.

All Ocean Bridges are required to be built out of T3 materials and are required to have 13 open space block above water in order to allow all kinds of boats to pass. They must also have 10 wide supports in order for large boats to pass through.
Tunnels will be required to be lined with T2/T3 materials when available beyond market needs. Tunnels are also required to have 5 open spaces in height to allow for all vehicles (excavator I'm looking at you) to pass through.

Anyone to have been found "closing the edge of the roads" with dirt to make a highway "appear" supported will have their title removed.

By requesting the Federal Highway Workers title you are stating that you

  • Have read and understand these rules
  • Will abide by these rules
  • Accept that you will be fined if you do not follow these rules.

No one has the title yet as I do not have a MoI yet and there are no laws in place for the highway payment/placments yet.

"All Ocean Bridges are required to be built out of T3 materials and are required to have 13 open space block above water in order to allow all kinds of boats to pass. " - is that correct? 13? That's insanely high...

vernal geyser
#

Yup, that's how tall boats can get

polar folio
#

Its not very..... "medium"

south niche
#

wow, now I really want to see one 😄

#

btw, would it be possible to make the bridge in sections - like middle section at full height for the boats and end sections a bit lower, so it's easier to access them from the shore

heady burrow
#

Bridges just need to have 2 10 wide sections that are that high by Federal Law. So ramps on the ends are the norm

I don't see it specified anywhere (could just be blind), but roads should be at block 70 right?
If so I request the roadworker title and accept the rules under penalty of being yelled at by KatFish 😛 (and being fined)

south niche
#

the law for ground works pays for blocks at & above 71

errant niche
#

Thank you. Someone south of Unica didn't get that memo then

south niche
#

I think it's also about common sense - if the whole area is at i.e. 67, there's no point in making the highway at 71?

#

or am I wrong on that one...?

errant niche
#

The reasoning comes basicly down to "ramps are bad". They slow down your speed so the idea is that all highways are at the same height. Do agree that with that it sometimes does make it look strange when there are huge bridges above sollid ground though.

south niche
#

meaning fast travel between final destinations and not really convenient when getting on/off at the mid points?

errant niche
#

basicly

south niche
#

I wonder about people who settled at those roads, but the area is at a different height - shall we say "screw'em"?

errant niche
#

In the past they adapted once the highway was build (its been done like this for a long time). People can change the location of the store or make some stairs etc.

polar folio
#

It's also in large part due to 1. Trucks (the full size ones) HATE ramps and routinely get stopped on them. And 2. Some of us literally get motion sick from ramp/flat/ramp/flat.... 🤢

#

So, the fed highways are FLAT unless ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. And NEVER are built under level 70 so that if the gov failed, then flooding does not impede it.

limber ridge
#

well, it could effect it if the gov really failed 😄

  1. there's a half built stone bridge over a river south of Unica (see attached image).
    Is it ok if I complete it? or should I just continue it? or forget about it?

  2. Also, the text we agreed says "Anyone to have been found "closing the edge of the roads" with dirt to make a highway "appear" supported will have their title removed.".
    Can I assume it is ok if we completelly fill under a road with dirt?

random storm
#

yes for both!

#

But for 1, I recommend you wait a bit

#

bc rn it seem like people don't get a payout for using blocks like that

#

I ask about it

#

and for 2, yes, we need to put dirt under the roads so there is no holes (like floating roads blocks)

The south Unica bridge will be made to look much nicer so anything already done will be removed.

tough sphinx
#

Is there a project of "much nicer" bridge so I would be able to start building it?

tough viper
#

Half of it needs the Unica Road Worker title, if you have something in mind for a nice bridge then let me know and we can work it out.

#

Its on my todo list next after getting Unica road payments sorted.

tough sphinx
#

Not sure if it could be build with current materials tier though

tough viper
#

Im buying alot of mortared limestone for Unicas building and this bridge so we could try and do something like that.

#

Then upgrade to Ashlar once we have it

I, Dolo, am formally requesting the Highway Worker title. I have read, understood, and accepted these guidelines.

I fully understand the threat of fines, public flogging and any suitable punishment in lieu of non cooperation or general malfeasance with the intended title.
