Transport in the Atlantic Federation

Transport in the UAF is mostly state controlled or regulated, it is controlled by the Atlantic Federation Transport Agency (AFTA) under six branches: The Atlantic Federation Highways Agency which controls roads in the UAF, The Atlantic Federation Aviation and Airways Authority which controls airways, The Atlantic Federation Waterways Regulation Board overesees how the waters are used and restriced and the Atlantic Federation Public Transport Agency which has different boards controlling public buses, trains, trams, the underground system in Bentonport and taxis.

Atlantic Federation Highways Agency
The Atlantic Federation Highways Agency (AFHA) controls all the public roads in the UAF. It currently manages two motorways and four A class roads. There are several other B class, rural and urban roads that the AFHA also controls.

Motorways
The national speed limit on motorways in the UAF is 80mph (128km/h) There are two motorways in the UAF. The M1 and the M2. The M1, or the Bentonport Ring Road connects all areas of the island via a singe loop. It is built to dual-carriage way standard and has gradual bends designed for high speed. Along the motorway are twelve high speed interchanges where the flow of traffic is uninterrupted by vehicles leaving or enetering the motorway. The motorway is built above the ground and is travels throughout the high-rise city on large cable suspended bridges. The M2 is bulit to the UAF's M+2 standard, with four lanes either way and a speed limit of 120mph (193km/h), the M2 is a revolutionary example of future road engineering. The motorway provides fast travel from Grovecaster Falls and Bentonport, onto the Atlantic Federation International Airport. It majestically navigates the South Benton Channel and Port Bay with large cable suspended bridges.

A Class Roads
A Class Roads usually are built to dual carriage way standard, the national speed limit on these roads is 60mph. The A1 offers quick access from Bentonport's northern districts to the docks district, connecting to both the M1 and M2. This is heavily used road by HGVs, hence there is a designated lane for them. The A2 provides quick and easy access to the four major towns of South Isle; Groveton, Oakdale, Beechbridge and Elmbay. It also connects in several places to the M2, which goes onto Grovecaster Falls. The A3 connects the A4 to the M2 via the Atlantic Federation International Airport, round the north of North Isle National Park. The A4 travels from West Benton Isle to the M2, round the south of North Isle National Park.

B Class Roads
B Class Roads are single lane dual direction roads, the national speed limit on them is 40mph in rural areas and 30mph in urban areas. There are several B Class roads accross the whole of the UAF that connect villiages and towns.

Rural Roads
Rural roads are one lane only roads that are mainly located in North Isle National Park and along the beaches and waterfronts. The speed limit on these roads is 40mph also.

Urban Roads
Urban roads appear in Bentonport and Grovecaster Falls, these are small roads with tight corners in the cities. The speed limit is 20mph.
