Show us your...Intersections

[Haljackey]

Here is a very large urban interchange connecting two multi-highways together.  It also allows for a transfer between the collector and express lanes.  Sure urbanization of the area is just beginning, but it will get its use once the city grows.

I think it would be an interchange between a 12-lane highway and a 6-lane one? Looks inpressive, I think I've seen it before tho.

Okay let me make it easier for you with two examples of traffic movement for northbound traffic.  (Start at the start!)

Again, click for full resolution.

1.  Discrete interchanges for collector and express lanes. (No transfers.)
Light Red:  Collector lanes (outer lanes)
Dark Red: Express lanes (inner lanes)


2.  Full connectivity.  (With transfers.)  Since this involves both collector and express lanes, colour coding is not necessary.


I hope that clears up some things.

The hotlinking problems have now been corrected.  Thanks for letting me know!

after a while you can see the symmetry too....

The RHW interchanges here are nice. I thought I could show mine too.



I'm particularly proud of this because it is the first interchange I ever made that I am satisfied with. It took me a lot of time and simoleons to do this. I eventually got the hang of this and made two more, but to me, nothing beats the first.

[jjune4991]

great job! simple, but when you finally complete your first, all the others seem easier, and not as "grand". awesome work!

Highway 7 Airport Freeway. Exit Cranford Ave South

[MandelSoft]

It works fine Rodney It's a good first impression

[Haljackey]

frdrcklim:  That's an impressive diamond interchange!  I like how each side is unique!

Rodney99:  Wow, that's awesome!  Nice use of signs and lights too!

[j-dub]

@Rodney99 Wow, nice use of aesthetics!

As Simtropolis is down at the moment, I thought I would post my volleyball interchange here first. It is also known as a "three level diamond":



It will be shown in The Patrician Showcase (at ST) and the Show Us Your Interchanges! thread, as soon as Simtropolis gets back online.

[MandelSoft]

Nice one there, Patricius Maximus!

By the way I have some pictures of my intersections:

The Fully Connected Y-Interchange
I was making a half connected Y-Interchange where the A16 (heading east-west) and the A14 (coming form the north) are crossing, but then i started to make it fully connected. Here is the interchange in region view (before the make-up with forrest-parks, so you can see the structure):

They are intersections. Just not the normal freeway sort...
