About.png


Arkala is a large, fictional city, based in the UK. Development is closer to completion than it's beginning, so thats a good sign.
The city is powered by the main operator "Greenline", aswell as a few other cowboy companies, for a little bit of competition. While I've got you here reading, like a chimp:
Please note: All questions about release dates, and beta testing will be ignored.



Included Routes.png


  • 63/64: Arkala City Centre - Pendle Station

    • "The Posh Bus." These are the routes shown in the screenshots below. This is an intercity route, leaving Arkala through it's outskirt village of Chester Stanmore, into the deep countryside, and venturing into Cresthill, before terminating at a little coastal town: Pendle.
    • 63 and 64 are variations on the same route.
    • These routes are LOOONG BOIIIIS. The full route is 1hr 10mins, so a short journey version is woven into the timetables, operating only in Arkala. This is ~22 minutes long.
    • These are Arkala's flagship routes, also known as "The Sixties". These have a branded livery to match them.
The following routes will be included in an update. This update will likely come in the form of payware. I'm not promising anything though x
  • 6: Arkala City Centre - Rignals Hill

    • Yes lads, big up. All the 6's. Every 6 minutes, 6 days a week. The 6.
    • This is souly a city route. ~30-40 minutes long.
  • X2: Arkala City Centre - Pendle > fast via Bournside

    • Hopefully this adds everything that is missing from the other 2 routes. More country driving and additions of an expressway/motorway.
    • Although the towns that this route terminates are the same as The Sixties, it will not go via the same route.
    • Branded as "the Swift Express"

Its time for another update. Not too much has happened since last time, due to being away. Major things are the fact that I've fixed all vehicle paths, and managed to get AI buses up and running.

In the last update, I'd just done the entrance to Oxendon, but now the residentals of the area is finished, meaning I can get on to the commerical areas, University, and Hospital which live in the area. These are pretty big, and definately landmarks of the map, but we're not there yet.

I've also been trying some new textures, and making the map feel more British. Old areas have been revisited, again, again again, but the results I think are worth it.


Here, have some shots.
Note: Gemini 3 Streetdeck is shown in some of these images. This is a WIP, and not available to download. Follow the progress here: Buses - Wright Gemini 3 Pack

Update - October 2019.png


The summer has been and gone, folks, and a lot of progress was made in that time. Oxendon has been expanded, and the city is starting to come together well. The High St is currently being worked on, and I've made progress on both the 63, and the 64 in that area, since they split routes in this area. 63 down the High St, headed towards the hospital, and 64 via the dual carriageway.

Here's some shots to enjoy.

Very nice!
Very much looking forward to the map's release next year.
One question though: How long do you think the map is so far, with all the routes put together (counting the bits where multiple routes run only once)?
Thanks in advance! :)

Looking nice; the updates are cool but hopefully knuckle down now and complete this masterpiece. ????

I'm about just passed 2/3 of the way through the routes 63/64. There's not too much more to do on them, but they might take a bit of time, going into city centre. I've got a lot of plans for AI only routes, but they'll only take a day or 2, i reckon.

Update - March 2020.png


So, what's the story in Balamory? Baso, I've been hard at work on the map, but just not posting much. Whoops.
Since the last update, there's been rebuilds of existing areas, to allow route 64 to actually fit, and quite a large extension added, including a hospital based on Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham.

I've also been adding AI routes to give the map more of a living city feel, and included some easter eggs, one of which is pictured below.
There's been a number of things halting progress for weeks at a time, but hey ho, we push through. The hospital is hard to get a decent shot of, in the current state, so just deal with whats below.

Feedback, advice, and thoughts are appreciated!

Enjoy the shots :)
