Use the same tactics as Cities In Motion (same dev after all). Get people from A to B using metro lines and rail, use buses as short feeder lines to grab local traffic and feed your trains.

Commercial should be a "sound" buffer for industrial if they're nearby. But generally industrial should be its on section and commercial darted around.

 

Ah, thats where im going wrong.

 

I usually just zone a whole area for comm.

 

Will try the above.

yeah you don't want a big section of commercial, that will cause gridlock. I work on the ratio...every 12 squares on a road has a 4x4 square of commercial. Seems to work quite well. Stick a park on the opposite side of the road, and bam, house prices go up, everyones happiness goes up, you get more money.

Expanded... again.

 

Once you expand, it's over. lol

 

I'm trying something new out. (I know you advised against this featured, i just wanted to see how it goes as i had no tourism zone :/ )

The expansion to the right is only Commercial and office (the left side of it being all comm and right being office)

 

They have tons of metro stations and bus stops, but it seems a fudge load of people still come from resi / outside via car? I even have a damn airport, but that only gets 117 max people here per plane?

 

Traffic, yeah, traffic is a building up a little on the right highway coming into the area. (1 way in, 1 way out). Backs up just onto the curve of the entrance.

 

Any ideas?

 

Currently med demand for resi, high for comm, med for indust.

I'll take a pic of my new starter...I put the unlimited money on but everything else has to be unlocked as normal. Basically you need good access to your motorway or else traffic blocks up quickly. Try having a couple of on/off ramps per section to ease up traffic.

Dont, you won't get any sleep tonight if you do. :jaw:

 

Wha.. what day is it today :shocked:

 

Enjoying myself on it but my cities look nowhere as neat and tidy as your lot :p

Right...sunny...it's fixable but gonna cost a wedge. I can do it if you want but don't expect a large positive amount of money when it's done...

 

Go for it. I'll load it back in when you've done it. See the difference.

 

Thanks maytey

oh man...half hour on just your roads...no matter what fix I put in for 1 place, it backs up elsewhere....also...your use of 1 way roads...nothing short of shocking. Didn't mean for EVERYWHERE!!!

 

I have upgraded most of your roads. Its fixed around 80% of your traffic issues, you still have some, but I'll let you work on those. lol. In short @Sunnyknight....start again.

Nearly 60% of your roads were 1 ways or highways...I watched the traffic to see where they were going...upgraded the roads from 6 lane 1 ways to 6 lane 2 ways. You had a shocking volume of 1 way inlets for residential as well...meaning people could go in but not come out so that had to change.
