Cities Skylines Intersection Simulation, Part 3: highway to highway exchange interchanges 1

These Cities Skylines interchanges are the high flow capacity monsters.

I love how this interchanges is like the size of a small city

[elman]

Traffic AI: yep, i gonna pass all around and go all in one lane

[makiville]

pinavia looks so good i might wanna use that in my city

[leoterss]

my city runs on a "supermarket grocery trip" budget i can't do anything bigger than a roundabout

[StellaMyCat]

Imagine all of these combined, boom you got Atlanta highways

[JeremmyJaimes-nqrh]

"Dude we are already lost, just use google map, it cant be that hard!"

*What we are going into:*

[james]

Most realistic part of cities skylines traffic is the drivers refusing to drive properly causing traffic buildups

[hugefootballfan]

Dallas Texas is a mix of every signle one of these

[dotdedo]

Pinavia is actually so goated I’ve been experimenting with a bunch of intersections and the pinavia is the most effective for high traffic areas even though it looks nightmarish

[MrsHeeroYuy]

love the pinavia, honestly this short makes me want to go back to CS1 even more. However I couldn't help but notice the lack of proper lane mathematics on several of the other intersections that was causing their traffic.

[jordangarza]

Pinavia is something you see in china miss your exit you have another 360 to go

[danielt]

Pinavia is definitely the coolest. Imagine the difficulty of it on an icy day! I like turbine the best.

[Hellomrmem]

Anything beyond the cloverleafs I don’t have a single brain cell that knows how to navigate that, I only just figured out how to do the cloverleaf by searching it up on here

[yter]

In Germany the "custom' version is very similar to the real version, but at some locations it was enhanced by having 4 additonal small bridges in the "flower" circles which avoids the crossing even further. By that it still uses only 2 levels. Having 3 oder even 4 different levels is crazy expensive in RL.

[Devanow]

Thing is, the custom cloverleaf does have too sharp curves. Everything past that is just garbage, as it does limit the ways you can take. Only the Cloverleaf allows you to drive in every direction and be able to use it like a roundabout.

[ITSBROWSINGTIME]

What about contraflow right? Also the pinavia thing whatever looks like one of the highways in engitopia by real civil engineer but more organised

[anpilot]

Turbine is the best for heavy traffic. Also compacted versions of contraflow work well.

[アイスクリーム-us]

Whoever invented the pinavia design is insane. I've been trying to design my own interchanges in paint software before going into cities skylines and it's a gigantic headache to prevent any roads from going through each other and having none of them touch in the actual intersection part.

[gigabyte]

I struggle to make these interchanges perfect. I need to work on making every ramp curve the exact same angle

[kursat_dmr]

In Pinavia, the vehicle cannot make a u-turn by crossing to the opposite lane from which it is coming
