That's the way I thought it would be, but I wasn't 100% certain. Thanks!

When you say that an avenue now has the same capacity of a road, does that mean they're interchangeable? I don't see how that's realistic or desirable if that's the case. Shouldn't an avenue be like two one-way roads, effectively doubling the (bi-directional) capacity of a single, two-way road?

I don't think I have something that can read MDBs, but I'll give it a shot.

Has anyone done a Mac-compatible Buildings Database? I'm not up to the level of editing game properties, but I'd just like a reference for the potential buildings (even just a big PDF). I tried Andreas' database, but it downloads as an EXE, which I can't use. I tried searching the STEX on "building reference," "lot database," and some other variations, but nothing at all came up.

I think the best description of this system is "Bus Rapid Transit," or BRT. It's basically just like a Ground Light Rail, but the vehicle is a bus and it's a roadway not a railway. They're fairly common in South America. They have most of the advantages of light rail but are much cheaper. Los Angeles just opened one (the Orange Line) and Houston is building one or two.
