Highway 6 (Maxwell)

Highway 6 is the longest highway in the country of Maxwell on Earth 2. It is about 927 miles long, attracts about 1,531,000 cars daily (most in the capital area and big cities) and construction began in 1949.

South Maxwell
Highway 6 begins on the South coast of Maxwell in the city of Palm Springs as a 2-lane road. After 2 roundabouts, Highway 6 finally begins north-east, as a 6-lane road. It passes the towns of Stackham, Los Fernando, Spindleton Valley and many more towns and cities. Until reaching Coleburg, most of Highway 6 is quite hilly with semi-arid conditions, and about 10 miles before reaching Coleburg, the road decreases to 4 lanes. This part of Highway 6, however, is notorious for dust storms.

After Coleburg, Highway 6 enters more grassy and agricultural terrain, with a few hills. It passes the big city of Benjamin, where Highway 6 widens to 6 lanes, and even crosses one of the hottest areas in Maxwell; Scorch Valley, where tempratures can get over 50C.

For the final areas of South Maxwell, the road decreases to 4 lanes and crosses foresty terrain.

South Central Maxwell
Still in foresty terrain, Highway 6 passes the cities of Anderbury, Holt Riverside and Triton. Even at 1 point, Highway 6 has a complex spaghetti junction with Highway 22, near the town of Holt Riverside.

After Triton, Highway 6 becomes incredibally flat and crosses marshy terrain with a few trees.

Most of Highway 6 in this section is either 4 or 6 lanes, but at Holt Riverside, it becomes 10 lanes.

Upon reaching Central Maxwell, Highway 6 becomes 4 lanes and crosses bushy and foresty terrain before reaching the border of Central Maxwell with a hilly terrain with a few trees.

Central Maxwell
The section of Central Maxwell only lasts about 55 miles, but lots of cities pass Highway 6 in this area, such as Smithfield, Baldsbro, Caster Valley and lots of other cities along the way. The majority of Highway 6 in Central Maxwell is about 6 lanes. About 5 miles upon reaching the Outer Capital region of Maxwell, the capital city Mapton can be seen in the distance.

Outer Capital
Upon reaching Outer Capital, Highway 6 gets filled with streetlights and widens to 8 lanes, passing a lot of towns along the way, such as Graham, Smitherton and Grand Oak. The terrain becomes a little more hillier than Central Maxwell, with a few ridges too. Just 3 miles before reaching the Capital region, Highway 6 becomes 12 lanes and many of Mapton's towers get seen in the distance.

Capital (Mapton)
Once Highway 6 reaches the capital, lots of houses, local areas and some towers can be seen. This part of Highway 6 is notorious for congestion, but this area isn't as bad as the area near it. This section passes the inner sections of Orange, Oakley and McClay.

After the first section, Highway 6 widens to 18 lanes. This area of Highway 6 is bamboozled with tons of skyscrapers, plenty of streetlights, and a ton of congestion. Over 450,000 cars pass this section of Highway 6 ever day. There have even been a significant amount of incidents of severe crashes and pile-ups round this area of Highway 6. Even one incident back in July 2004 involved 43 cars crashing into eachother, killing 3 and injuring 51.

After passing the central section of Maxwell, Highway 6 decreases to 12 lanes, and it passes lots of suburban areas, such as Sixhills, Grand Four and Featherby. Just after lots of suburbs, Highway 6 briefly passes am area of a few skycrapers and towers, before breifly reaching suburban terrain just after, and eventually, Highway 6 passes Mapton ANR airport, in which Highway 6 widens to 18 lanes. It then leaves the Capital region with a few houses and small towers.

Outer Capital (again)
Highway 6 goes into the Outer Capital region again, but this time, it passes quite a lot of towns, more than the first part of the Outer Capital region Highway 6 passed. In this area, Highway 6 passes the towns and cities of Manchester, Heather, Grangeford and Chesterby. After passing a significant amount of towns, Highway 6 decreases from 6 lanes to 4 lanes, and passes rural areas again, with a pretty hilly landscape. A few mountains can even be seen in the distance.

This part of Highway 6 is notorious for black ice spreading on the roads in the Winter months.

Northwest Maxwell
Highway 6 then enters Northwest Maxwell at mostly 4 to 6 lanes. It passes lots of forests, lakes, rural areas, and farms. This area is the least congested of all areas of Highway 6, with only 16,000 cars passing daily, but sometimes, it can be more than 25,000, due to some of the cars entering the capital and outer capital regions.

This part only passes a few towns, but it does pass a major city called Upper Lake, with a population of 2.3 million. Over 63,000 cars pass Upper Lake daily. The section of Highway 6 in Upper Lakes widens to 8 lanes for about 14 miles.

Highway 6 then goes into a mountainious landscape, with visible mountains on the west side of the road. After 21 miles, the road goes back to flat, agricultural land.

Highway 6 ends after a roundabout on a North Coast Maxwell city, called Shore Town. However, Highway 6 briefly becomes 2 lanes for just about 3 quarters of a mile. Highway 6 finally ends at a small roundabout after 927 miles. Highway 6 continues as Breedonfield Route 5273 before reaching the coast and ending at a small traffic light junction after 3 miles of promenade road. After all this, lots of small roads replace Highway 6, with some even stretching into the country of Polston.
