RHW across water

[Darkstar30 8]

How do I get a 4 lane RHW to cross water.  I have tried every bridge and combination of going from one side to the other, but I cant get it to build.  I only can get one to drag across and build when I do the remaining lane it just says that it cant build on this type of terrain.

you've gotta switch it back to an avenue or road to do a bridge or overpass.

I dont really follow? because I tried that and I cant get it to cross the water

I don't really use the RHW but you drag the maxis ground highway across to get a bridge and select RHW 4 , I've seen the options for it.

What @AprilAero mentioned is one of the options.  In fact, it's the only option if the two RHW-4s are directly adjacent to one another, as it's impossible to build two bridges directly next to one another.  If there's one tile or more separation between the two RHW-4s, then the base RHW-4 bridge will work.

select avenue, drag it across the water, select the RHW road 4 or the other RHW RD-6 bridge.

Those are for the Network Widening Mod (NWM). For RHW, you are better off using the Maxis Highway tool to drag the bridge out. Not to mention that the RHW bridges will visually link to the RHW networks nicer. By using the highway as the base network instead of Avenue, the bridge will work at the much faster highway speeds and likely have a higher capacity too.

If you ever want to do an RHW-8 or RHW-10 bridge, you need to use the Maxis highway tool to drag out a bridge in each direction. With any bridge where traffic is one-way, you have to drag the bridge in the direction that you want traffic to travel in.
