About This File

One of my favorite mods is the Diagonal Intersection RoadTop SubwayBus Station (also known as MTRT) made by @uroncha back in 2005. It's a set of bus stops and subway stations that can be placed on top of streets, roads, one-ways and avenues, just like Road-Top Mass-Transit (RTMT). What I enjoy the most in MTRT, however, is that it also includes bus stops and subway stations that can be build on top of T and X intersections as well, which is very convenient for me. Why building bus stops and subway stations next to crossroads, when you can build them on the crossroads themselves? :D My only complain was that MTRT includes Subway-Bus stations for roads, one-ways and avenues, but not for streets. If RTMT comes with subway and sub/bus stations for streets, why not MTRT too?

So, I decided to make 4 new lots as a little add-on for MTRT to include road-top sub/bus stations for both straight and diagonal streets, as well as for tee and cross intersections. Since I'm a lotter and not a modder, I didn't change any aspect of the sub/bus stations, such as the name and the capacity of 15,000 passengers. I'm just too lazy for that *:P *:D. All I had to do was to open the Lot Editor, pick the street bus stops and replaced them with the sub/bus stations. That's all. So, don't be surprised if you see that the game will still call them "road sub/bus stations" even if you can build them on the streets. Sorry for that *:blush:. However, I can recommend you using MTRT Sub/Bus Street Addon - Rebalanced made by @MiniMe943, which fixes the names in the UI and re-balances the capacity values *:8)

Installation is very simple. First, download the Diagonal & Intersection RoadTop Subway-Bus Station (link above) and install it to "My Documents\SimCity 4\Plugins" folder. Second, download and install my add-on, preferably inside the MTRT-V1 folder for convenience. Third, have fun *:golly:

"Transit Enabling Police" is here :D :D 

Great work there @Terring. One tiny detail. The Transit Switch Entry Cost (TSEC) should not be 0. There is a great tutorial how to set it up properly, but in short for all four lots it should be 0.04 (you can edit it in Reader, that's the easiest way).

You can do all these editings in Reader and in that case you don't need to fix the TE Mac bug which comes with edits made in SC4Tool. 
You should change the N-S Bus-PED/PED-Bus switches to all four way on the regular ortho station.
Also on the above image the TEE station might need some adjustment.

All four lots need some adjustment on the TSEC, as the above image shows.

Otherwise it's a pretty cool addition. Thanks for sharing!

Hi @Goodbye_Megaton... Refering to your question in the review section...

These are great, but I wish they worked properly on the Network Widening Mod roads.

These lots are based on a set that was made long before the NWM was released and are not compatible with the newer networks. There is an RTMT set that has been in the works for a while that addresses the newer networks, but it is still a work in progress.
