Rutherford

Rutherford is the second largest city of the Void District, as well as the seat of the Bays-Hammerhead Borough. Rutherford was the first settlement established in the Void District, although Bays City is older.
== History ==
Rutherford was founded in May 2011 as a more flat and planned alternative to Port Thomas. The streets in the old parts of the are in a grid and follow a strict naming convention of capital cities. When districts were formed in August 2011, Rutherford became the district capital, although the city only housed the council, with the district court being based in Sunnyside. In April 2020 the district council and capital status were moved to Sunnyside.
Over the years Rutherford has become more or less consumed by Port Thomas as it sprawled and it now considered part of its metro area.
== Transport ==
The city is skirted to the west by the M2 motorway and roads on all sides of the city take travellers directly to Kingston to the east, Archton to the south and Port Thomas to the west. Rutherford bridge crosses the water to the north to Bayville. There are also docks on the north side of the city that connect boaters to the main waterways. Rutherford had its own airport, but this was closed and built over in 2014 due to the proximity of Port Thomas International Airport.
