[@YaadMan4Life]

Tremendous build. The bus hub seamlessly integrated into the central train station. Magnificent infrastructure. One suggestion is to make the road infront of the bus hub to be bus only. I see cars are using it as a turn around lane. Great work. Looking forward to the next infrastructure development.

[@eduardpuiggarcia6584]

That express bus directly parallels the train line, I don't see two forms of public transit competing with each other. I think the best system for TP in Easthaven would like an insular hub and spoke model type of thing, with buses connecting the rain stations with the rest of the island and trains connecting islands between them.

[@martinreinders6870]

American city of course there is competition between rail and bus services 😅

[@dantem4119]

Pretty accurate for boston tbh. The red, blue and orange lines follow commuter rail lines

[@hannawilkens1125]

My idea for the transport Train, more passengers=day🚞 Bus, less passengers=night🚎

[@eduardpuiggarcia6584]

@@dantem4119 because buses do local services and trains "express", different services different demands, in here both of them are doing express, both services compete for the same demand.

[@japopo5533]

Bus lines work better when you create more shorter lines so that you can right size the number of busses to the demand. Also the express bus line you made is providing the same service as you trains going from one train station to other. Which basically makes your lines compeat against each other for riders. But still a good episode, like the transit hub.

[@Jexeter66]

PLEASE upload some full first-person POV bus journeys through Easthaven! I really loved that little segment seeing where the bus was going and I think it would be amazing to see the full journey from that perspective! Another excellent video Infra! Really enjoyed it :)

[@Morkeoth]

[@Infrastructurist]

Inception-skylines my friend!

[@joshuacaalim]

I hope you change the stops in downtown Fort John and Chowder Bay into shelters instead of signs to increase passengers' comfort. But aside from that, this is another great build! I'm looking forward to the next episode.

[@YukonAdmiral]

What would be to cool to see is some sort of grand emergency services complex, with a custom fire station, helicopter depot, and more! Simple storyline: Originally created soon after the founding of the city, the "Easthaven County Fire Service" operated as a backup unit to help out the more local fire departments across the county. As Fort John grew and the times rolled on by, the local government decided to reform it into the Fort John Fire & Rescue Service Headquarters, turning it into the dedicated fire service HQ for the capital island. Over the years as the city kept on growing, a helicopter depot was added to assist in water rescue and brush firefighting operations.

[@hoangbarnett567]

bro your builds are single handedly keeping my interest in the game

[@joakimtobiasson8992]

That parking lot reminds me a lot of a place I passed by each time I drove to and from my ex's house. The topography is inverted (the parking lot was on an elevated plateau along with a transit station for train and bus), but it was a very common spot for car meets and people would often hang at the gas station across the street with their cars. Whenever I went back later in the evening it would always either spill over into or move entirely over to the parking lot.

[@El_Deimox]

That part talking about cars... gave me an idea: Riverview National Speedway. A mini version of Daytona International Speedway of some sort.

[@gabi.gol_]

Would be so cool

[@MaxToge]

Oh boy was I happy hearing you talk about car stuff happening in the parking lot haha

[@powertt313]

Fort John could have a coastal tram. Backstory: Back in 1920s Fort John had a thriving streetcar network but over the years cars took over and by the 1950s most of the streetcar lines had been torn out. There was one line left the coastal line going from Winter along the coast all the way to Bay's end. A local advocacy group fought strong to keep this piece of history and line with a great view from suffering the same fate as all the others did. Back then this wasnt very popular but over time the people of Fort John grew to love the tram by the sea. Today it is very busy and recently the city invested in brand new state of the art rolling stock and are looking into future routes for the growing city.

[@kennedyspace1159]

Yeah historical tram lines, but was not shut, to preserve the history, and now it servers as Tourist commuter along the coast/ Sightseeing.

[@dalton-at-work]

loving the car culture lore, fellow nerd/enthusiast !

[@hugho90]

If you made bus lines separately for individual cities, and separately express lines only to connect individual cities, you would not have a problem with routing between Fort John and Cowder Bay (and probably less traffic from buses/ better public transport inside each city). Also what I personaly dont like (just my opinion) at Queen's Cape you used the wide ally way for bus stops, but the poor passengers will get off on the road without a pavement. Otherwise I like this episode 👍

[@Businessmanfr163]

Let’s gooo new infrastructurist drop!

[@samuel_18.07]

Amazing and creative video! I think, when detailing the bus station, some of the invisible pathways are slightly messed up, for instance there goes a pathway through the fountain. Apart from that a really nice built and greetings from germany✌️

[@Unicornsnot9]

Getting back from a long day of studies and met with a new episode from this series fills me with so much warmth ❤ I honestly think this is my favorite series on KZbin among some BANGERS

[@Raf-ek1hv]

I love the new bus depot but I think the overpass desperately needs a second pillar as it goes quite a long way without support!!

[@julesverne2509]

rofl "and if you dont know anything about cars then this rambling isn't going to mean much to you" hahahahaha

[@blackfang06]

Another thing I'd like to see more of in your city is parking garages. US Cities absolutely love their parking garages... especially the closer you get to a downtown area. Some of them could be clipped into larger buildings as well, to simulate below ground/integrated parking.

[@RbxRave]

X: "How dirty do you want your builds to be?" Infre: "yes"

[@BarbershopReviews]

The deer crossing downtown was hilarious!

[@danonck]

I missed this build so much! It's definitely my favourite CS2 city/region and I can't get enough of it. Especially since you "try not to go too heavy on the detailing" 😅

[@gabi.gol_]

O think the city is needing some big recreational space, a stadium, another fancy golf club, a custom baseball stadium as well… some guy suggested some kind of race car circuit that would be cool too, but yeah, something on that line to bright up even more the scale of the city

[@Felix-tx4br]

The bus depot with graffiti looks incredible from upclose! The whole area looks so realistic

[@dukkiegamer1733]

I can't for the asset editor. Your builds are already so detailed. Imagine what actual custom assets could do. I'm especially interested with the upgrade mechanic in service buildings and how that can be implemented to make really cool stuff.

[@panzlotko79]

19:20 obviously you did read my comment m8! Nice to see that ingame😍Fort John citizens will have a grat time during the night making some awesome illegal carmeets on the outscirts ☺verry large space for that kind of activity

[@DZag6149]

On the bridge you built a couple episodes back you should definitely add graffiti decals on the remains of the old bridge pillars! Since the government had no intention on removing the pillars, after the bridge was built graffiti artists would travel by boat to get to the pillars to paint on them! This could then become a symbol for the areas around the bridge!

[@bblair130391]

Almost got those parking places juuuusssssst Reich

[@ithen75]

Always get goosebumps if the music kicks in.

[@vittoriooh]

I think that express lines could be from 1 to 9 and then you could name local lines based on the zone they serve like 1X for Fort John, 2X for Chowder Bay and so on. Big lines like this video's line one, since they link two different cities could have three digits: the ones that identify each city they serve. Line 1 that's in the video would be 121. If three digits are too many you could name it 12, while local lines could be F1, F2.... for Fort John, C1,C2... for Chowder Bay and so on

[@tigonologdring9189]

Love the new bus infrastructure! The Express line should just be called _Rail Replacement Service_ though, since it's just a duplication of the train line connecting the two towns. And really, what a silly question! "Do we need a tram network?" No! Of course not... do we WANT one? Of course we do! LOL

[@randallcromer66]

Awesome build ideas. You're a amazing artist.. 👍

[@Fr0zenCrafter]

I think buses in Fort John should mainly be intercity and Fort John should get a subway (like Boston has the T)

[@endless123487]

I don't know if the very long bus line between Chowder Bay and the main train station works well with traffic (and, as someone else already mentioned, the train already services most of the distance). Maybe splitting up the two bus lines, one for each city that lead to the train station, would make it work a bit smoother, as passengers in Queen's cape then wouldn't need to wait for Chowder Bay traffic to calm down so that busses can get back. Or maybe even make three lines: One for each city that covers a lot of ground there and serves as collectors to the train station. And then a third one that serves as a bus connection between the two cities with some stops in between. For example, industrial areas that residential bus lines wouldn't service, but where work commuters might use a bus to skip the train, if they are working in the other city.

[@Telsion]

Here in the Netherlands, we have three-digit bus designations, with several prefixes for specific services. For example, school buses (which only run early in the morning and late in the afternoon) start with a '6', '5' is for flex buses, etc. As for Easthaven County, I'd just suggest to start with 101 for your normal bus routes. Maybe give your express buslines a prefix like '8', so your express line would be 801 then.

[@breydenmartens8609]

Aaaaand we could placeee thiss overrr heeearrreee… “I don’t know if you guys can hear that by my voice” Makes me laugh every time

[@mash288]

That realistic bus depot is need of a few billboards 😍😍😍

[@dionbetts6689]

Lighting towers! Very common to see lighting towers or high powered streetlights in parking lots and industrial areas :) mainly for security reasons

[@davidbne30]

Hi Mate, great video as always. Both of the main islands need internal buses running in a clockwise and anticlockwise routes, to bring people from the suburbs to the central areas, college, industry/work areas. maybe just a couple of buses in each direction

[@Alex-oy4qn]

Loving the cities gameplay, and I thought I’d share how we handle bus naming in my hometown, Darmstadt-might give you some ideas! Instead of numbers (those are reserved for trams), our buses are named after the main destination one the line or area they serve. For example, Line H goes to the Hochschule (university), Line F heads to the Fasanerie (pheasantry), and Line K serves the Kleyer district. Single-letter lines like F, L or K are for inner-city routes, while two-letter lines (FM, GB, WE) take you to the suburbs. You could even apply this logic to express and night buses. An X for express buses (like 'XH' for an express route to the university) and an N for night buses (e.g. NP for a night route). That way, everything stays tied to its destination, but it’s clear if it’s an express or night service! Simple, effective, and practical!

[@the_robinbrown]

I'm envious of all the Simizens on this city. Really wish I lived there!

[@EdwardClayMeow]

I love the story about people doing burnouts in the bus parking lot.

[@TeddyRadko]

Holy smokes that bus terminal and the station 🤤

[@blackfang06]

With the amount of deer crossing traffic, I think you need a memorial bus line for all of the people who would inevitably meet their demise when their bus slammed into a deer.

[@jgliszczynski456]

Exceptional work, and always a pleasure to watch

[@deetoher]

Express lines: prefix E plus a number. Special night buses N plus a number. Then other bus routes can get a letter prefix that matches the main bus hub that the route serves or a prefix indicating if it is an orbital (O) route or a radial (R) route. If using radial routes, you could even have a double prefix: RN, RE, RS and RW indicating the direction of the non central point.

[@brandicunningham7243]

In terms of a North American naming convention for the buses and transit: I'm Canadian, and I live in Edmonton. Our transit system is called the ETS (Edmonton Transit System) which could be a great placeholder for Easthaven County. You could directly name it the EHCS (Easthaven County Service/System) which would also be quite fitting. Unfortunately, Edmonton is really boring with it's naming convention and will usually use a numeric number, and the neighbourhood/region it will service (004 Lewis Farms, for example). With the grid layout of most North American cities, our transit systems are typically numerically based or street named based. We're not very creative here lol. Another example for express service is when I lived in Vancouver, we had "B-Lines" which serviced a massive Boulevard and major arterial of our cities. What connected East Vancouver all the way along Broadway street is called the "99 B-Line" which services a major transit hub (Commercial Broadway Station/Hub) to the University of British Columbia. You could also take inspiration from Vancouver as Vancouver has one of the best systems in Canada for public transit.

[@BlazingsNL]

9:26 that looks like a highway charger from Fastned! I hope you'll be able to complete this transport hub without ending up with a huge traffic/pedestrian problem.

[@jackpubbo]

36:19 why not use the extra space for a footpath so the pedestrians dont have to wait on the grass

[@mamadou2.042]

I don't know how citizens feel about the services of the police, fire department, and roads, but I think we need to look into it. Maybe it would be a good idea to establish a town hall. Otherwise, your videos are incredible.

[@lesterfrancis8284]

For your bus lines, I would follow the Los Angeles Metro Bus model of numbered bus routes with the Central Railway Terminal as a major bus/train interchange. Let me explain. 1. Local bus routes will have route numbers from 1-99 2. Express bus routes will have route numbers from 100-199 3. Nighttime bus routes will have route numbers from 200-299 4. Downtown Circular routes will have route numbers from 300-399 So, for example. If your daytime local bus route is number 10, then your nighttime local bus route will be 210. Since both express and downtown circular routes do not operated during the overnight hours, you can leave those route designations alone. I hope this bit of info is helpful.

[@tuurkie2964]

Another super fun video, really enjoyed it.❤ I have an idea, but don't know if it fits well in Easthaven county. It just seems like a nice idea to make a beach with a seawall where you can walk and bike. Maybe you could also add the Kusttram like in Belgium. This is just an idea that I think would be fun to make in City Skylines 2. :)

[@DJ-jm1fn]

Please permanently park a MKIV Supra in the parking lot 😂

[@kennedyspace1159]

How about we keep the prefix as simple as EH, so EH-1,2,3 etc. For Express service u can keep EHX EHD, EHN for day and night only services EH as in Easthaven.

[@displayheadsmedia]

still waiting for the Fjord city new episodes pretty please.

[@theorixlux]

I like the idea of calling the express lines Haven Express Rides [destination] i.e. HER Cape Autumn. Then you can call the commuter lines Haven Intracity System [destination] i.e. HIS West Point

[@zuluhyena305]

Would love to see some trees added to queen's passage. I feel like the city would want to present its best self on one of it's main streets. Plus, from a planning point of view, allowing parking on a main throroughfare would be a big no-no

[@julesverne2509]

I kept connecting the invisble paths up into the road and it kept giving me the "not connected" sign... Now I see they dont have to go that far. Just next to it. Very nice.

[@KlippKlar07]

Love the video and normally I don't comment but I've got and idea for the naming of the transit. Regarding the naming convention you could use regular numbers for the regular buses and maybe give each island its own decimal (for example the tens for Fort John, etc) the express buses could use the prefix R for rapid bus (e.g. R1) the night buses could be called "nightstar" and abbreviated N and a number of(e.g. N1) and maybe even replace the rail services during the night. As a name of the bus service there would be ITE (Isles Transit Easthaven) with their motto being "interconnecting, transporting, enabling you" The train lines could be named S for suburban or C for commuter and a respective number (for example S1/C1). The outgoing trains could be classified IC (intercity as is common in europe). Intermediate trains could be called CEX (commuter express) Thanks again for the videos I really enjoy them.

For the names of your internal train system, why not called it Regional Train Transportation System or more simply RTTS ? To be realistsic, it actually exist in Paris with the RER system I love your content and I'm exited to see the next episod of East Heaven County

[@kennedyspace1159]

Maybe something with the P building should influence the name like: Proximity, or Passage. Just transport company names for ya

[@julesverne2509]

thanks for the upload btw, this really helped

[@the_nomadicnarrator]

If you do happen to do a night only line (although it could work for any line) , you should name it after the guy who rode the horse and was yelling " the British are coming" during the Boston Tea Party....Since we are all colonial... Alternatively all Express Lines could follow whatever naming system should you choose to use this suggestion.

[@fordmiller5273]

Chowder bay seems to be more advantageously positioned geographically in the region. Maybe fort john and chowder bay should be a "twin cities" situation - fort john being the historic/political "capital" and chowder bay being the economic/social hub. P.s. you should totally call lowplain "Skinner's Marsh"

[@who_is_artis]

36:12 you couldn't add grass because there were transit stops on that stretch of the road. Unfortunately, even though people don't use that median as a stop, the game won't let you put grass on it.

[@caponecashfunds]

MBTA bus's are usually just numbered. For example " 32 Chowder Bay ". Use that information as u want! 🤷🏻‍♂

[@h34dbug92]

I think you need to build the city center now to test if your train and bus system works together side by side.

[@iulik-thegamer9811]

Maybe for the all time routes you could add more stops while for the night only routes only connect the most important stops
