If we’re talking about lane mathematics and realism, usually in Ontario, Canada anyways, on the big highways we add an exit and entry lane instead of deleting and adding lanes to the main highway. if you have a 3 lane highway it would go to 4 before an exit, and then 3, then 4 with the entry lane, and the back to 3 once cars have merged. On Maps, follow along highway 400 for examples. If you really want to freak out over lane math, look at highway 401 through Toronto. It’s one of the busiest, if not the busiest, highways in North America, and has collector and express highways running in parallel with multiple 400 series (our biggest) highways intersecting it, and some high quality spaghetti 🍝 junctions. I’d love to see Biffa fix that!

At around 7:00 Biffa talks about people getting on him concerning the way he handles traffic and pointedly said it's a computer game. Right on! The great thing about Cities :skylines is the flexibility, if you don't like the way Biffa does it, do your own thing. There are areas in my cities where "lane mathematics" works works very well and others areas that I don't use it. I also use what's called (in the US) as the "Jersey Jughandle" Instead of a huge traffic circle, a simple one lane addition so traffic shoots straight across instead of a left turn sometimes makes all the difference. I'm still learning the timed traffic light system and once I do, I might even put in a few reverse diamonds. If an area is especially bad, a few meteors does wonders in correcting areas too....

At 12:20, where you created that new connection to the highway, it already looks like people are using that road only to get to the highway, to immediately exit the highway. Why not have a slip lane that does just that? This way, they don't even get onto the highway and can go where they need to, and others who want to get onto the highway can.

I find doing good subways and lots of pedestrian bridges fixes most of the traffic issues. You can cheese in a crosswalk down the middle of 4 lane roads with a median in the middle and drop the crosswalks diagonally onto the corners without loosing and buildings. Realistically it would be a round or square spiral down to the street level, but they do not have them and I have not seen a mod that can handle it. Minneapolis actually has elevated covered crosswalks between buildings and they all connect together and you got down stairs inside the buildings. They actually do food courts and restaurants on the 2nd floor and retail on the 1st floor and the rest is usually office buildings or apartments. You can literally go through a good chunk of downtown without going outside. I would love crosswalks that went between buildings that enter and exit from the building's front door.

One thing I don't understand about Biffa is that, he always start fixing stuff from the back, not knowing what the real cause is at the front. He would start from the back, and solve one problem at a time, sometimes only to find out that the problem at the front would require retracing the lane mathematics back to the back. For example, at 2:40, it's quite obvious that one of the many reasons of the bottleneck is the next exit, where there were two exit lanes and one thru traffic only. I personally would start at the front and work backwards.

Road higher archy is KEY not to mention you need proper collector roads that connect to arterial roads and have your collectors connect to your residential ( local road ) 2 way 2 lane roads, also that only arterial roads should connect to your collector and nothing smaller. 1 {High way} connects to your arterial road only the 6 lanes. 2 {Arterial }road connects to your highway and your collector road, not with the local residential 2 lanes. 3 {Collector} can connect with your arterial and you're residential but not your highway. 4 {Residential} can only connect to your collector and nothing else for smooth flow of traffic.

Every UK Motorway junction has a small element of lane mathematics as the sliproad always give you time to accelerate onto the motorway before merging, or to leave before the actual sliproad starts. Really clear examples are M5/M6, south goes 4-3-5-4-5-3-4-3 (there is a second slip lane off the 3 section but it's still essentially lane maths) starting after junction 9 and finishing after Junction 7. Spaghetti junction, junction 6 M6, is also a good example.

I can confirm that lane mathematics is realistic. Where I live, in Oman, there r a lot of stretches of highways that use this, where the right lane(s) split off. This can cause drivers to be confused and change lanes at the last second to stay on the highway. But usually in the real world one extra lane appears and then exits the highway.

When you put in that weird 6 lane road at the end of the turbo exchange I was seriously asking myself if a roundabout wouldn't make more sense and low and behold you had to switch to that. Gotta say, those intersections at the waterfront really boggled my mind too just watching this and I'm surprised by that little extra roundabout you put in on the left (when watching from the waterfront) because that one road coming off gives access to go straight on even though everyone coming from the bigger roundabout next to it go off to meet the waterfront road. Probably never would have thought to put that little road in that way, but it seems to work, especially when you added the extra underground slip lane to the other bridge.

Generally, it seems that turning city blocks within a gridded city into squareabouts, like at 19:50, seems to work out quite well for managing traffic flow, especially when the junctions that make up these city blocks are located too closely together. By the way, when doing lane mathematics on interchanges, why do you ignore the off-ramps that split to turn, and merge from, left and right? I'd have either upgraded the major highways to 4 lanes, or, if keeping the highways to 3 lanes, shrunk the straight on roads within interchanges to just a single lane, so that the 3-lane highways would be split off into a single-lane and a double-lane road, which would, in turn, split off into 2 single-lane roads, resulting in a 3-lane road ultimately splitting off into 3 single-lane roads. Also, if I see a pair of congested bridges that are roughly parallel to eachother, but are two-way, then I'd make them one-way each, then link them up together into a larger roundabout-like road layout (similar to a dumbbell or dogbone interchange).
