Back to basics with this avenue FLUP interchange.

 

 

Cool. Simple, yet effective.

[Sims firehouse 198]

One cloverleaf interchange that has just broken the grid.

This loop... It's unachievable with the current NAM plugin.

Another shot

And please have a tour

Well i think it's been a while since I last posted in this thread. I made the following interchanges about a month and a half ago when I extended a highway in one of my regions. However, i forgot to upload the photos until today.

Not sure what to call this one. Note that this is where the west-east highway(The one i extended) used to end at the north-south highway(It used to be just a simple trumpet interchange)

Further west along the new highway, a partial y-interchange with an avenue. I didn't put a southbound avenue-westbound highway connection because there was not enough room.

Great work NTM! I haven't seen you post in a while but I must say your RHW work keeps getting better and better!

[Haljackey 17,272]

Finally finished this junction

Original design did not have the westbound connection

 

Here's what it looked like before expansion. Just a simple curve back then

I redid this interchange which which is based after one in my hometown of Fresno, CA. Ever since I made that, Caltrans completed the braided ramps(Similar to the 401's Basketweave) to connect CA 41/180/168 together and stop weaving. Here's a google maps view of what the real-life area looks like(I recreated the section of 180 from the 41 interchange to Chestnut Ave

New interchange and highway connection.

Click pics for full size.

Initial design


Due to traffic congestion, widened outer ramps to 2 lanes


Eyecandy added


This highway ends at a parclo made with RHW 4.0. Upgraded the connections before terminating it into an avenue

I noticed the terminus gets quite some usage, so I drew this up as a possible uprgrade:

 

 

Not sure if it would even fit, but it adds capacity. I just thought I'd throw it out there for kicks, enjoy.

[Jorge_carrillo 140]

Two interchanges able to work as returns one is more dangerous than the other but works well too.

Very nice and very Interesting! This upgrade/new interchange was actually phase 2 of a highway upgrade.

 

Phase 1: (Also click here for a vid)

 

Phase 3, if it happens, would see the upgrade of the RHW-4.0-era interchange. I thought about truncating it into a 3-way junction like a trumpet.

[jmsepe 2,038]

Such density Hal.  Great work with the interchanges although some looks like they have taken all the city tiles.

thank you Haljackey, Your interchanges are amazing too.

Excellent interchanges as always! 

[NielsC007 499]

I finished this one yesterday, the RHW going south-east is more of a national road as suppose to a highway/motorway.

 

[NielsC007 499]

And another interchange!

 

[Thin White Duke 4,072]

Nice use of MHO!

[Haljackey 17,272]

Nice work with diagonal / fractional angle RHW Neils!

 

For your second pic, here's a quick drawing where where you can avoid the left entry:

EDIT: While I'm on the subject, here's the only left entrance I have ever made (built during a SPUI retrofit due to space conditions... I'd like it to become the third lane of the RHW-6C to the top of the pic)

Those are some nice interchanges.

[tonyr 926]

So many great interchanges guys. Beautiful work!

That was what I wanted to do originally but there aren't any L2 smooth curves sadly, ERHW is a bit limiting sometimes. By the way, my name is Niels. 

 

I also finished another interchange today.

 

 

Yeah, it's a weird one...

You could use a FLEX Curve, those are smooth. They're what I use.

[MushyMushy 3,617]

A FLEX Curve could be used there, but the way the red line is drawn 45 degree smooth curves would be needed for it to really look normal.

45 degree FLEX curves plz.

Correct but there aren't any diagonal ones.

[11241036 5,096]

How about using a L2 FlexFly, then a height transition piece to lower the elevation to ground level, then smooth curves to connect your MIS to the highway?

Although that'd work but I want to save space as well. To the north is the coast so I needed it to be compact and by doing that I wouldn't have a lot of space left.

Here's one I made:

 

[henrys1996 127]

Just a stack interchange I was fiddling with... no elaborate storyline behind it yet. What do guys think?

[zimmie 521]

@Haljackey - (some reason wouldn't let me quote your post on the previous page) - That looks great. I can never make a spreadout complex system blend in well like that within a big city.

Thanks! Ya I try to make my highways nice looking as well as functional.
