How would the traffic be on this design?

I built a gambling city like that with the casinos in the middle (I didn't know back then that doesn't work if they are far from transportation), anyway the problem is that the city had only one entrance/exit that was on top of the concentric circles which led to lower streets being empty, middle ones being yellow and orange and the top parts where in red and standing traffic jams most of the time. 

 

If you where to build a city like that on a flat map with two exits/entries into the city AND, more importantly, the agents where to use those two equally to get in and out it would work out quite nicely.

Soo... well... on the first look, it appears to be a bit more then a semi-cycle... The stubs whould have some nice flowing traffic, but the more you get to the border/Exit/entrance, the more you'll be screwed, it'll become a traffic jam.. Probably try to lift on side, so you have only T-Intersections on the main road, and the entrance road shouldn't intersect too early. Give it probably about 1/3 of the map, or 1/2. Then intersect it.

Anyhow, you hopefully know, that cycled roads aren't gonna be as dense? I'd guess you can get like 200k res., in the end... depending on wealth and this crap. :D

Here are the screenshots(I reduced them to 50% in paint), I made it by using the picture as an idea but I had to change some things and add some extra roads:

Nice!  Where's your industry, or did you not build any?

 

Non. It's a gambling city more then enough jobs in 4 casinos, 8 train stations and 2 bus stations and other necessary buildings. + low wealth can be kept at medium density which frees up the roads from a LOT of traffic.

Edit: without the guy obviously

 

 

That's someone parachuting over the Playa at Burning Man, correct??

 

Attending Burning Man one year is definitely on my bucket list. I need to hurry up though. I'm getting old....
