That pedestrian bridge looks janky, it would look way more natural if it were a straight slope down, or if that's too steep it should have a slope next to the retention wall (as it could be mounted on or just stabilized by it) and then bridge across the river.

[TastierBackInThes]

Biffa that bridge. Run it parallel with the quay wall then gradually run it down to a nicer gradient then across the river.

[EdwardClayMeow]

The pedestrian bridge reminds me of a rollercoaster. As for the rest of the build, it is looking good.

[jameswiebe]

Biffa - Yeah, that bridge is terrifying. IRL, the bridge would run right beside and at the same level as the train bridge, with pedestrians going under the tunnel on the university side. Then, the path would curve up to the university ground level within the university property area. The other option would be as mentioned elsewhere - sloping down on the outside of the retaining wall until it was level with the road on the opposite side, allowing a level walking bridge.

One other point - there is a triangle of ground where the train tracks diverge on the other side of the university grounds. At present, you have kept the ground in the middle of the triangle at university height. This results in a huge expense of retaining wall around a piece of ground that is not otherwise accessible. IRL, this ground would all be taken down to train track height, so the only retaining walls are those directly between the train tracks and the university level. (Frankly, they likely would have left a steep slope if possible - retaining walls like that are *expensive* to build. Keep the slope but have it tree-covered is best of all.)

[chetanaik]

Couple of suggestions:
- For the pedestrian bridge, why not make the bridge lower height (maybe equal to the train bridge) and the make a ramp or swirly UP to the university level on the other bank. Make the bridge a stick out a little less
- Consider using the road builder mod! Gives absolute flexibility in road selection and design - it even has a mini road workshop within the mod where you can use other user's roads!

Such a beautiful build today. Historically I have a feeling the traditional university has been there a while and through grants and endowments they were able to build the modern medical University.

The only thing missing is a couple of medium density and low rent residential zones for student housing.

Great video!

[pyromncer]

All I can think of watching this is all the students that will fall down off the bridge or onto the rail after a night out drinking 😱 Hopefully the schools have set up some good fences around the place!

[tanerica]

I think with that big of a university you’d have a lot of dorms and apartments. Maybe right by the train station near the end of the pedestrian bridge. That’s how my college was! The gym and apartments were a pedestrian bridge away from campus.

[plip]

Hi Biffa.
Maybe the railway tracks should be a tunnel. Then you'd have more room for either a station (more convenient for people) or to put your bookshop or other additional element.
Congratulations on this campus, it looks great. Now we need to dig up the river (just a little!!).
Thank you very much.

[juliejongkryg]

Any dormitory to go with the university and maybe a coffee shop?

[kathyweber]

28:43 is a perfect spot for those two small buildings from your ruins. Like they were houses that were abandoned on that little cliff. I like the new University area! Really pretty on that cliff.

[MobiusOne]

I think it would make more sense to actually tunnel the train line through your college campus. With how low down the line exits the quay wall, a tunnel is just more practical, plus you get the added benefit of not having to have all those bridges over the train trench. ALSO: YAY for finally connecting the train and bus terminals with a pedestrian bridge!

M-I-Tea or New Brewburg Tea-ech (lol, like tech)

[BillinhoBamford]

Having dropped my daughter off at uni a few weeks ago, what shocked me was the amount of student accommodation that exists for a modern uni. Maybe NBU (New Brewburgh Uni) needs some more dorms/accomodation?

[matthewkrohn]

I think a great name for the college would Yorkshire UniversiTEA! All the tea puns! 😃

[nikicroft]

The pedestrian bridge. I would never, too high.
My suggestion
Slope down close to the wall, straight bridge and slope dow to the ground level.

[YHY]

You forgot to add the 3rd university. Once you place it, you will have extra bonuses city wide plus some unique buildings.

[sea]

The district/university should be called "Golden heights", because the view at sundown looks awesome ☀️😊.

[roybmanofmerlin]

Biffa you moved a bunch of standing stones, hopefully this will not unleash a curse upon the city, or they may have been an earlier version of Alien Rock Park 😨☠😈🧙‍♂

[Scoreface]

I think a cable car from the trainstation to the University would look great.
