It appears you put a diagonal RHW directly over a 45-degree FlexFly. And I believe that that crossing isn't currently supported. You're going to have to re-do your interchange slightly in order to fix that. Sorry, I know it's annoying to have to rework an already completed and MMPed interchange, but I don't think it will function properly unless you do this. I'm not sure if the paths will work.

I was aware of that when building it, and after trailing various solutions in the construction phase, this version made the best looking and most effective interchange. The paths don't work, but sometimes, appearance over functionality. :)

Excellent work!

While I am pretty much a newbie in my infancy, stuff like this makes me wanna re-do all of my work and start over, with transportation setup as the starter. 

Hopefully I get to the point where I can share as well, but for now, count me among the group thanking y'all for taking time to post n share, as they do inspire us out there!

It's funny how the interchanges are (almost) the only place with trees in the city. Great work otherwise :yes:

Is this interchange even Possible in Sim City 4. If so can I get some guidance on that?

You are definitely  going to want to increase the scale by quite a bit. As tight as you're trying I'm pretty sure it's not gonna happen.

    That's the interchange that was used in the movie Speed. Your incomplete ramps reminded me of it ;).

     

    The Mythbusters also tested this jump

    [insane interchange in LA]

    Holy crap. I can't believe you're trying to recreate that sucker. I truly wish you the best of luck, though!

    I thought about this, and am still thinking about it because though I've thought about this, I still have more thinking to do as to stop thinking about it would mean not to think.

    Parclo Roundabout Interchange all On-Slope. Took quite a few tries to get an interchange that would work between the small downtown area, the water, and the edge of the map. Initially I wanted to do a some kind of spaghetti junction, but ran out of room too fast. The result is still pleasing. :P

    Sometimes you need an interchange that's not quite an interchange. Allows for traffic to travel in MOST directions.

    How did you get the GLR-on-Avenue with Rail viaduct piece?

    Before and after of an interchange in the main industrial district of the same city as above. Before was NAM 32 era diamond interchange, and that has been upgraded to an on-slope interchange, one part windmill, one part parclo. Might also try to re-introduce the tram system that I had before and increase the slant of the main freeway to add some more FAR or diagonal ramps.

    Before:

    Here's My Interchange. This is not the Judge Harry Pregerson Interchange from Central Las Angeles.
