Thanks ever so much - a road behind my property in Tompson, that you can't rez a vehicle on, linked to possibly the most unsightly railway(?) trestle in SL!

The trestle has ruined the outlook for residents of properties in Honawan and Portage, not to mention making it pointless my building on my South Eastern border!

Why? I can't remember when I last saw a vehicle on a road - and behind my property it comes perilously close to a triple sim junction, which as we all know is a real problem for movement of any sort... And this in an area of notoriously dodgey sim borders...

As for the trestle, again, why?
Why wasn't the protected land extended across the back of Portage? Instead we now have an ugly structure hugging the cliff edge, ruining the outlook for several people who have invested time and money on really nice builds which had spectacular views...

Surely a more elegant solution to this planning oversight on LL's part could have been engineered?
If you must mar the landscape with ugly roads in the first place...

As far as I can see SL is becoming more and more like LA - which rather defeats the object of the concept, doesn't it?

'Protected land'? *hollow laugh*

If it says protected land, it's most likely slated to be used for a road. I am sorry you are displeased; this is partially my fault as keeping up with the road work for the demand of land we have is rather difficult, but it will eventually get done and I realize it tends to disrupt the perceptions people had about the way the land would look.
