I was playing around making the tightest circles of highway I could and made a crazy bad roundabout.

It's evolved!

I'll try and wedge it between some busy town and a highway.

After I routed all of the traffic from all of the highways trough it but they just took the overpasses and magically didn't get into any accidents even though there was two highways worth of traffic going through one intersection.

I made a few changes and a couple videos. I can get cars to use the inside ring.

I don't know if it's worth doing though.

Okay I think I got it. This works really well and doesn't look too terrible.

The video is from before I cleaned up some of the roads but it works the same.

"Only ambulances, hearses, police cars, fire trucks and garbage trucks can use these roads. Commercial zones will not last long (no supplies to sell). Buses will be added later. "

Now there is a mod that allows pedestrian walkways to be used by public service vehicles. Police, Fire EMS and garbage trucks will use pedestrian walkways and you can also zone pedestrian walkways with buildings.

This is awesome. It allows you to build better neighborhoods without worrying about the services getting there. Plenty of European cities have walkable-only ways that police still use but no private cars are allowed into.

This is what I need.

Edit: This is so useful even if you just put a small bit of it and connect normal roads for making service roads that only garbage trucks and the like can use. It acts like a gate.

I guess it's about half way full now.

I really wish I could take the $60 I spent on Simcity and give it to the people who worked on Cities: Skylines. They earned it.

Starting a new project.

That's about as big of a circle as I can make on a stock map.

I have discovered that if you have a starting road and a target road that are on the angles you want to match the curve road tool will snap to match them if you get close enough with your starting angle. Good thing.
