How should I make the road from the highway to normal road?

Ok so title might be slightly confusing so let me clarify:

When starting a new game, what is the best way to go from the highway to the city? Because right now I just do 1 way roads that go to the main road but I have an idea that it's very bad design (and super ugly). any advice is acceptable!

I've always wanted to make a 4-way interchange in middle of a neighborhood like this. And this is the first model, any recommendations

Making a replica of Canterbury

Today I will be starting to do a replica of Canterbury (as close as I can on vanilla with a few DLCs)

Slide 1: I managed to get it to scale as much as I could to fit 9 tiles. And my baseline is that Canterburys pedestrian high street is 800m long

I found some good maps to help me with road layouts.

Luckily I have spent a lot of time in Canterbury so I have a good visual memory of all the streets, shops, residential areas. I know all the bus routes and train routes.

The best part is, shitty traffic is an integral part of Canterbury so when the roads are inevitably too small and there’s an inconceivable amount of roundabouts then I’ve done something right.

I’m playing on console and my current DLCs are Green cities, industry, campus, bridges and Piers, hotels and retreats, and pedestrian areas.

If there’s any other DLCs you recommend for this build I’d appreciate the recommendations. Or if anyone has done this or something similar and can share that would also be helpful!

Can’t wait to show the finished product.

Starting my first dedicated city!

I started game yesterday and made some cities to understand the game a bit. Now I downloaded a custom map and am building my first long term (hopefully) city.

As I'm a beginner, I'd highly appreciate ANY tips or suggestions. I only know how to make some zones yet lol

Transfer goods to mountain

CS1: I have a town on the high hill, let s say mountain. My industrial zone is down the hill, a little bit far from the mountain town.

What is the ideal option to transfer commercial goods to the mountain? I plan to build train tracks but i am not sure if there is any train that can go up a mountain in real life.

Of course the van and truck can use lane, but i want to reduce it so i am thinking about other options.

Thanks.

I build this park and ride area serviced by busses to reduce the amount of cars in the city

Still have to detail it up a bit but I’m surprised how well it is actually working and how much usage it gets

The Lush Paradise of Ruby Bay

I've been really into designing these ultra-wealthy upscale neighborhoods lately. Especially tucking them into the sides of mountains.

[IMPROVED] Tiny 4-way interchange

This interchange is available on the workshop since many people requested it.

I decided to improve upon my previous interchange design and created this!

Compared to my old design this one both runs smoother and is theoretically safer while maintaining the tiny footprint. Whether you're turning left or right you'll be using the same exit, just different lanes. The U-turns for turning left now have dedicated lanes both before and after. This also means that traffic going straight through never needs to slow down.

Any tips on how to build freeway entrance and exits?

This is something I struggle with and traffic always builds up because the traffic will do anything but be organized at random times.

Tight on space, Interchange ideas?

Lots of heavy traffic on the lower highway. Upper one is a busy entrance to the city

I tried to do a cloverleaf interchange but there’s not rlly a lot of space on the side closest to the railroad
