Nice to see some RHW-2. Looks very good and realistic! Sometimes we tend to go too far with the massive highways and interchanges ... :-)

That looks amazing! Truly great work. Might I also recommend turning off the gridlines before taking a screenshot?

@Takingyouthere: Great work as usual! I've built a small highway system for my medium-density town North-West Fairplain. Here it is in the town center:

Thanks! And very nice screenshots, @Thin White Duke! I have to ask, what is that building to the bottom-left in this picture?

It's very satisfying when you line up all the parking spaces attached to the buildings. It's very easy - you just have to have some patience when you de-zone and re-zone every time the wrong type of building grows.

Some more suburbs from Fairplain.

I saw in the interchanges thread that you are looking for more efficient way to plant trees. I may have something that helps:
This mod lets you use the God Mode brush for large amounts of trees in a area, just like you can before you start a city. As long as your tree controller or whatever uses the trees you actually want to plant, it works wonders for me, and it might for you too!
Beautiful interchange by the way!

Thank you! I use the Ontario Signage Set. By the way, I did add an E-W connection today that fit in pretty nicely. Hehe, thanks It was really just spending a long time holding down the left mouse button...

Thanks for the tip! I'll download it and try it out. Looks very good. I created another interchange this afternoon. I'm thinking I'll build a large city to the north and west of it. I cheated a little bit and used subway tunnel lots for the west-north and west-east connections, because I couldn't find room for them. I had already built a threeway interchange, when I decided to expand it and add the western route, so I worked with what I had. It might be possible to squeeze in the W-N connection, but the W-E connection would require substantial rebuilding to add properly. Overall, I'm happy with the design now, so I probably won't bother. I did just realize that there is no E-W connection. I might add that, although I'm not sure quite where yet...

This is my most successful attempt so far at creating a compact threeway interchange. It could probably be a bit tighter still, but seeing as how it is located in the countryside, it doesn't have to be super-compact. By the way, is there any way of creating a custom tree controller? Or a tree controller with the similar trees to the ones I'm using here? Because planting all the trees took about as long as building the actual interchange...

Yeah, I agree. I chose that one as well. On another note: here's more interesting roadwork from my city. Quite chaotic!
