One of the big issues I've found with Cities Skylines is the notion that all cities branch off some sort of divided interstate highway. Here where I live in the Midwest I have to drive for 30-40 minutes to get to an interstate and there are dozens of small cities, towns, and villages along the route that are founded alongside a simple 2 lane highway (sometimes jumping to 3 lanes for short spans near larger towns). Even the interstate (I-90) is only 2 lanes going each way, with a 3rd lane only appearing for entering and exiting. Not every city is a megalopolis attached to an interstate, and not every interstate is some 6 lane monstrosity with an overelaborate system of interchanges.

@@crazyscarecrow8136 I made my own maps, and traffic was still ridiculous. It's way more about the unrealistic amounts of traffic the game generates, than anything having to do with the map itself. You can literally have a village with a population of only 100 and the game will generate more than 100 vehicles. Something I seriously hope they improve in CS2.

I find the mod Traffic Manager: President's Edition (TM:PE) adds extra tools to give you more control over the traffic that really helps. I've done everything from managing lanes and turn arrows, to creating custom timed traffic lights with turn signals and the whole bit to keep traffic moving on a busy entrance where there's not enough room for a roundabout. Also watch Biffa for extra tips and tricks, his content is excellent and much of what I use TM:PE for, I learned form watching Biffa's traffic fix videos, especially is "lane mathematics" on the highway-highway and highway-city interchanges. For some reason, the traffic routing algorithm loves to create lanes with multiple direction options at intersections and have all the vehicles clog up a single lane on a multi lane street as they can't figure out how to handle a lane (lane 3) where you can turn right or go straight through with lane 2 being straight through and lane 1 being left turn or straight through. Often in situations like that, though you have 3 lanes available, they'll all clog up lane 1 or lane 3 and get in each other's way, even though those going straight could use lane 2 and not get blocked behind the ones going left in lane 1, for example.

Yes, just watch any of CPP's tutorial videos and he does this, other KZbinrs do it too. All you do is place a 2-lane road connecting both highway segments before placing your 4-lane connector (6-lane arterial works too), you can then just use straight 2-lane roads to connect and form the Y-shape, bulldozing the above mentioned 2-lane road then upgrading the rest to highways, it's hard to explain in words. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iYi6aYGjabOVrqs It takes practice, I had to do it a few times before I could start doing it without thinking.

The roundabout example looks good, but my experience with plain vanilla Cities Skylines is that once you start to have crossing traffic, the performance of roundabouts drops off very quickly, to the point that they quickly turn into a traffic problem instead of a help. I notice as an example Biffa uses them extensively, but always uses traffic manager to set up lanes, intersections, and flow. In pure vanilla roundabouts aren't very productive things. Put another way, the don't degrade gracefully, they go from functional to totally clogged very quickly once they are even marginally overloaded, and those blockages tend to have very big repercussions through the entire area. Providing incoming traffic with a number of options, such as extending the incoming highway lane and having a series of exits off of it, can provide a much more robust solution that is less likely to clog on normal traffic. Keeping the inbound and outbound traffic out of each other's way (no crossing / intersecting paths) goes a long way to making this work.

It appears that traffic would get in each other's way if it gets really busy.

The best road idea I have ever seen, is Route 1 in the lower part of Rhode Island. It is just two lanes going each way with a wide separation between them. There are curved center turn lanes every mile or so, eliminating the need for expensive overpasses and fuel wasting stop signals. This same concept could be used in urban settings with businesses in between the roads. Crosswalks should be in underground tunnels or overhead walkways.

True, but many highways terminate in collectors and will step down the number of lanes based on the local topography and/or budget available. Just because you can do a thing doesn't necessarily mean you should do a thing. If he had mods installed, he could simply designate all lanes as thru lanes and eliminate any u-turn issues. But since he wanted to demonstrate these in vanilla mode, he doesn't have the option. Still, stepping down lanes is very common, so what he demonstrated is very much a real-world implementation.

Your second and third solution are basically exactly same solution. Those roads are only on same one road at latter! :P I wouldn’t necessarily use that 4th connection? As incoming traffic has to cross that collector road to get into city. Partial cloverleaf would be way better entrance to that. No crossing. Also on that 5th solution would be even better to build that kind of ramps on both sides of that bridge, so no more crossing over that collector road anymore (of course, requires to ban left turns with traffic manager-mod) With vanilla game you could implemnt similar with replacing that 4-lane bridge with 2 separate 1-way roads so they cant anymore turn left.

I think you've missed the Trumphet which is, IMO, the most effective (3 way) type of highway interchange in the game. And it's not harder to build than the options u mentioned.

That's a good point. I've thought about dividing some of these out and doing some more detailing. I have an Xbox Series S coming on launch day and plan on making some videos. Maybe I'll use that as one of my first builds. I'll be honest - a bit nervous to try out the Xbox version of the game, ha.

I think that it would have been the same thing as the 3rd method. Having a trumpet or any type of 3-way interchange ( half-clover, T or Y intersection and so on) is pretty much the same thing as it would connect to the city with arterial or collector road. It's like method 4 and 5 are basically the same as the city is connected via a service interchange (it's true tho that the type of service interchange has a lot more impact on traffic capacity than 3-way interchange)

I've been playing this game on PS5. This game makes me wanna get a computer so I can use mods more than any other game I play. I recently found your videos and they've completely revitalized my interest in this vanilla game, thank you so much.

The most annoying thing isn’t that you have to start with a highway, it’s that you don’t have the highway unlocked at the start so you have to be super disciplined to not zone on your main artery

If you're just going to loop the end of the highway together (the last example) the way you did, then you don't exactly need the offramp from the post-loop side. So, this being an example of an on/offramp system that might be in the middle of a longer highway stretch, it makes sense. But then you terminated the highway immediately in a loop back. Your loop is then looping back on itself to reverse the highway traffic, but it's also diverting vehicles into the offramp on the reverse side. With land being a premium, redundant offramps don't usually make sense, so unless you have massive traffic issues or you are directing multiple offramps onto separate collectors or in different directions (i.e. nonstop offramps going in opposite directions), why have two offramps going to the same collector? I'd rather see the end of the highway terminate in a complete merge onto a collector (or series of offramps going in various directions)... or loop back on itself, but the side after the loop have no offramp (since those cars would have already exited prior to the loop).

What I find underwheling is the lack of early game transport options. Sure you eventually get a train and harbor, but youre forced to start off with roads meaning early game is always car centric. Yes, you can eventually change to a more railway or harbor centric route, but its a huge resource dump and you have to destroy everything in place. I know you can enable this but I would like there to be a small train station and upgrade

I usually go with roundabouts in my cities. Depending on the main road, it can keep the congested traffic down.

Have you ever tried the floating roundabout (put the pre made small roundabout design directly above the freeway and then having on and off ramps attached to it with a collector just like you would with the simple freeway into roundabout design)? I know it’s extremely unrealistic (I’ve never seen one irl at least) and ugly as a sin but I think it’s fun sometimes to throw in a city

Those videos are my guides haha i knew nothing about the game when I started out, only watched your videos xD My question is what option is best for a city that is close to 20,000 population?. Right now I’m really struggling whit heavy traffic by my highway city entrance. Both people coming and leaving.

I have such a hard time building symmetrical roundabouts. do you have any advice? I see you use the curved road option, but I dont understand how it works to get them to make a circle. thanks! love your videos! I'm new to cities skylines and they're so helpful
