Well, vanilla really doesn't give you the tools to properly tackle the core problem.

[@theatheistpaladin]

Tips I would give looking at this city. 1. Keep zoning as mixed as possible. Gaint sections will only require cims to travel farther. If they can live, work, and play in walking distance, then they will. Don't make it necessary for your cims to drive. 2. Don't isolate the sections. Give as many connections between them as possible. Don't force traffic to take highways. 3. More bike and pedestrian paths as possible. Combo with mass transit. Use Metro, Trams, Trains, and Mono-rail to move large numbers of people. Have busses spread people out over a smaller area. 4. Don't do spaghetti junctions. More roads and more lanes are not always necessary. If you have to by-pass the area, then you didn't set it upright. Use Biffa's pattened lane mathematics to account for ways cims use lanes. Have lanes perform only one function where possible.

[@drpancakes1622]

5. Add more ways for Cims to enter the city from different locations. Having too few city entries can create bottlenecks. I could only see a harbour and highway entry.

[@darthkarl99]

2. is a bit misleading, you want connections, but you also ened to make sure you don't add so many they prefer tiny back-roads to the highway.

[@lucasgonzales4260]

@@darthkarl99 The highway is for regional transit. If they're using back roads for regional transit, it's the highway that's improperly set up. More connections between sections the better. So long as you don't have intersections 3ft from each other, of course.

[@theatheistpaladin]

@@darthkarl99 No, not what I said. That one was about how people isolate sections from one another. If you look at the map, you see many of them had only one or two connections when more could have been possible. Give them choices and don't let highways cut through areas that would disrupt local traffic.

[@reinerjung1613]

The city has a classic modernist design. Large dedicated areas for a single purpose. That makes all ways long. In reality this creates a lot of traffic and traffic jams (and politicians who believe in "one more lane will fix it") and it does the same in Cities Skylines. What is missing in this city are: (a) Lots of public transport and biking. Trams work very well and can be supplemented by metro and trains for longer distances. (b) All quarters should have mixed commercial, residential and offices. Factories a little off (noise and pollution), but not too far of. (c) City fright trains infrastructure.

[@CarinaCoffee]

It's very interesting the builder went with that design for the city as the district names led me to believe they're German (the Schwarzwald for the tree farming section caught my eye first) and it's normal to have this all mixed here with lots of public transport, train connections between local and farther away areas and slightly tucked away industrial areas. You'd think that one would build inspired by what one is used to.

I always struggle to understand why americans segregate things so much.

This looked like a road to hell paved with good intentions. TMPE settings everywhere, spaghetti junctions, bypasses, extra lanes, ... Glad that you were able to fix most of it because at its core this 80k city isn't horrible.

[@alydev23]

It's really interesting to see a city where someone's clearly watched a lot of your videos, has tried to take your advice, but misunderstood something at some point or another. I think it's a really relatable thing where as a beginner you might follow advice without really understanding the core logic thread behind the advice, things you pick up with much experience. It's applicable to every field really, I'm in software development and while inexperienced people can certainly solve problems eventually by simply copying code samples from stack overflow, taking the time to break them down and figure out what they're doing to understand the concepts going on is invaluable. Fascinating case study in this video, thanks Biffa.

[@droe2570]

This city is a great example of what happens when people use highways instead of arterials and ignore collectors. All that city highway should become arterials, and then all those space consuming interchanges can become simple collector intersections, then local connections to the collectors. All of these problems were created because the city creator ignored road hierarchy.

[@krasnamerah1926]

Darn right, T4rget would have a field day with any cities that ignores road hierarchy.

[@stevieinselby]

Not just the road hierarchy, but also the lack of connectivity. Too much traffic being funnelled through a single junction instead of distributed across multiple options. Also too many cloverleaf junctions instead of *proper* intersections that don't jam themselves solid at the slightest hint of a bit of traffic.

[@PerfectAlibi1]

This city really needed a Biffa traffic fix too :D

[@CarinaCoffee]

Ah it's been a while since we had a traffic fix episode. Like I said in the community tab, I miss them when we go too long without one so it's nice to have one again. One thing though, that before and after section at around 35-36 minutes could have used some speeding up, it felt like we were crawling along that stretch of road. The parts that come after that with the roundabout and the new road you build were more enjoyable to watch.

[@jonathanmarsh8119]

Love watching you fix cities Biffa. My roundabout question is "why only 1 lane off?" I found that "straight, straight+right, right" is better than "straight, straight, right". It means that two cars can get off the roundabout, or the one in the middle can go straight. Lots depends on the roads off the roundabout, you would need two lanes off and map them properly.

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Just works :-)

[@julianlora_]

Man, I salute your patience in fixing dysfunctional cities. I can imagine the amount of cussing that don't make it to the final cut XD

[@MajorHickE]

Another fun fix, and a great example of what some good mass transit can do. One suggestion for the user that I haven't seen in the comments is to connect the islands with a few bridges/tunnels, and use the waterways for some ferry routes. That would go a long way toward taking some pressure off of the highway, and particularly that one roundabout that seems to handle the bulk of the city's traffic.

[@Axelerati0n]

Ah, I love community city fixes! A great example of how TMPE doesn't just magically solve traffic problems. Reminds me of a city I once built specifically to avoid any kind of traffic jams, with intricate one way systems, lane mathematics etc., everything thought out. Turned out to be the worst city I ever built. Garbage trucks were unable to find efficient routes to all the neighbourhoods, endless streams of trucks ran through quiet neighbourhoods because the intended route took too long, etc. Had to abandon it eventually. Options, traffic needs loads of options to get anywhere. If they do, a few wonky junctions won't need to process that much traffic and give you some leeway in designing them. Very educative as always Biffa.

[@Tchelow]

It's so good to see all this metro lines working properly. Nice fix ☺️

[@Prokonover]

People really complicate themselves with the metro lines. My way of doing it is this: have the city segmented in areas somehow and put a metro loop inside of each one placing stops near to another's loop stops and a couple in the middle, so citizens can jump from loop to loop and travel across the whole city without the need of using cars. If one loop is too far apart from the other, i just set a straight line of metro tunnel with 2 vehicles going back and forth so they can do the jump. Also, using a train line around the outside of the city with a stop in every area on the edges also helps massively. Also, pedestrian walks are your friends!! Ask them for help!!

[@reinerjung1613]

I use trams quite a lot for slower public transport. Metros can then be used for longer distance and inter sectional traffic. Usually, I have one line per station (only on loops one line per direction, like in Glasgow in gray and orange).

[@Prokonover]

@@reinerjung1613 i have 2 lines per loop (learned it from Biffa), clock wise and anticlockwise. And i personally dont like to use methods of transportation that require more vehicles on the road even if those vehicles avoid having extra cars. Bus lines for example, i use them, yes, but only a few and in really small areas to cover local transit. For example, to me, a bus using a highway is a no-no. What I like to do is abuse pedestrian paths. I like giving citizens that option as much as i can. If the distance isnt too big, they will always choose to walk.

Maybe it's just me, but I felt a bit cheated that Biffa used the clear all traffic option. Part of the fun of watching these traffic fixes is seeing that gradual improvement over time and seeing how traffic flow is increasing. Clearing all the traffic felt like skipping to the end of the fix, so it was less fun for me to watch.

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

For this one it was soo ooooh bad I'd have to sit at the PC for hours watching it clear 1 car at a time.....yeah. No time for that! 😉

You put a turning lane in, a turning lane out In out, in out, you build a roundabout You pour another cuppa from your teapot spout That's what it's all about WHOOOOOOOOA, horky borky borky WHOOOOOOOOA, horky borky borky WHOOOOOOOOA, horky borky borky Tea's drunk, city's fixed, rah rah rah!

[@lucideuphoria7092]

No cap, that was actually pretty good. I read that in biffas voice too lol.

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Fantastic! :-)

One more for the Agadoo fans: Hugo Through, Through, Through, go by train don't go by road Hugo Through, Through, Through, pick your lane before this node Turning left? Turning right? Asymmetric roads will make your day Add a timed traffic light, making loads of cars give way The Yorkshire Tea has just mashed, teapot's ready to tip When Cities Skylines has crashed, we'll have another quick sip Hugo Through, Through, Through...

Saved the city again, great work Biffa!

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

Yes! Thank you! :-)

[@atago5921]

Watching you undo traffic is like watching someone untie a knot but it’s somehow therapeutic… I can’t explain why it is

[@VoyixLLC]

Don't known if you know barney but you made train stops look like a big purple dinosaur lol

[@liliacfury]

3:50 he’s like ok let’s fix this then he’s plesently surprised like oh you already did then he’s like wait a min u over did it, got his hopes up then crushed them 😂

[@tonje_gram]

I've learned so much from watching your fixes. Subscribed and liked. Greetings from Norway.

[@damienhufford]

Love your traffic fixes. Always wanted to send you one of my saves to fix. But since watching your videos for over a year now I don't seem to get bad traffic I can't handle myself.

[@BiffaPlaysCitiesSkylines]

😁

[@8dHb8]

Biffa is too nice. That was a travesty of an attempt of a city

[@sunshine135]

Mass Transit and giving your citizens options to get to multiple locations by various means is crucial in a city design like this. Imagine if you had Varsity Sports or Concerts! The city would be totally chock-a-block. Give them options and use good road hierarchy.

[@Blitz6804]

It really is incredible how much traffic backs up when you turn despawn off. My city is 71% traffic with 207k people. For fun, I hit the don't despawn button... I bottom out at 34%, and now my percentage is coming up... but population has dropped to 120k. Coming back up now... around 45% with only 92k, and still shrinking! Sounds like I shouldn't ever touch that button again...

[@jimmydemit1308]

lol biffa single handedly taught me roundabout and traffic control now i get 75 percent traffic all times

[@paraniok]

Best Fix in my opinion so far. City looks really nice and episode was fun to watch.

[@Amsterdam1198]

this can be considered as one of your greatest masterpiece , master

[@nicholasgraves3149]

This city is just a lesson in pointless redundancy. So many failed attempts to bypass traffic, when all you did was move it off the highway and into some dinky underground tunnel that becomes the new stuck point. Road hierarchy and real junctions fix almost everything.

[@wschmrdr]

One thing that always bothered me... the Network Extensions 2 and 4 lane look horrible, but the Mass Transit DLC 2 and 4 look fine.
