i just finished building two big interchanges. For one, i did use nopillars, but for the other i did not, check em out:

Hello, i've been lurking here for quite a long time and i think i've made something that nobody has ever made before in SC4 (probably because its pretty useless at the moment). It's called an echelon interchange and appereantly there's only one of them in the world and its in florida somewhere. The idea of it is to "split" an intersection between 2 arterial roads into two one way road intersections, giving all traffic 50 % "green light time". I got the idea of this traffic engineers web site (theres a few other interesting interchanges on there too) http://attap.umd.edu/uaid_gss.php? heres a picture of it if you dont want to click the link, and my sc4 recreation attempt. It took quite a few tries because the road directions were very confusing. Has anyone got any ideas how to make this actually useful in a city? nobody uses 2 OWR-4's side by side to form an avenue since a TLA-7 looks better, has got the same capacity (as far as i know), and uses one tile less. It almost fits in a 4x4 tile space, exept in the corner where i plopped the park. it uses one or two tiles extra there. EDIT: appereantly the road directions confused me more than i thought, because i had forgotten a left turn. i changed the picture to a correct one.
