One Way Roads

    I'm having a lot of problems with one way roads. I'll have two roads side by side that I want to make one way, and one side will work, the other won't. In some instances, the one way will work part way, but not all the way. I think it may have something to do with streets? Also, I've had problems connecting a road to a one way road - there will be no intersection found, and the road just starts, or ends - it's pretty useless if it won't connect.

    What are the rules for making one way roads?

    Thanks,

    Carl

    First of all, any intersections must be roads not streets. You can't overlay a road corner (ninety degree turn). Bulldoze them and remake the corner by dragging the OWR.

    One of the nice features of OWRs is that if you make a 3 x 3 circuit you get a traffic circle. (NAM feature) And if you put an OWR tile in the middle you get a nice monument.

    I have no problem connecting OWRs to roads with the exception of the ones in the NWM. These have transition pieces that must be used.

    If you don't have the NAM (Network Addon Mod) you should give it serious consideration, and for wider roads you will need the NWM (Network Widening Mod) that is an extension of the NAM.
