i hope i'm doing all this right, i'm working on a sunken highway with a glr next to it and then a regular rail next to that. the problem im running into is how to put my stations for glr in so my sims still have access to it.

i am moddeling this after portland oregon wich has streets and avenues running over the sunken highway (84) and on theses overpasses are elevaters to get to the max(glr) stops.

any ideas thanx

The way I've done it is with on-street subway stations and hillside GLR-subway connections. Make the "overpass" by filling in your sunken trench for 3 tiles, and put a hillside GLR connection on either side, then connect them with subway and toss a roadtop subway station on the "overpass". You can't do UDI anymore, but you do get the in-game functionality.

Hmm, so Jurmie, Is your GLR right in the middle between the highway and the rail line and your saying your having trouble connecting it to stations? 

I know for a fact that there ARE NOT elevators available for download, and they wouldn't even function in the game anyways.  My best suggestion would be to place a GLR station right next to a road/ave overpass, which would establish a connection between the road and the station.  You could also use the GLR-to-elevated rail puzzle piece to move the network to a area that has room for a station, going over the rail/highway.

However, I am still not sure about the whole situation.  It would be great if you could post a picture of your sunken highway so we can have a look at what you're dealing with.

Anyway, I hope I helped out a bit!

Best,
