I like how the secret to pedastrian cities irl is mixed use everything so there's always shops, café's, jobs, etc... within walking distance of people's homes and you just completely went the other way

The main reason why there isn't a lot of bicycles, is that there is no bicycle paths ! Adding roads with bicycle paths, and bicycle path bridges (or get a mod that has both pedestrian *and* bicycles on it) between the islands. And add the bicycles policy in *all* districts, yes, even the industrial one ! _/small_wall_of_text warning_ I have been doing a fair bit of pedestrian experimentation, lately, in the hope of improving traffic in my bigger cities, and I found the following : - *Busses suck !* … they are great to begin with, but they just don't have enough capacity past 10k population, and they add traffic. - *Metro rocks* … up to around 100k -200k population, then you end up having so many of them, that they start bunching up against one another. - *Trains !* They are the true mass transport, just don't forget to build multiple and disconnected tracks, so you don't get cargo and passenger mixed up. After trains, there isn't really any high capacity mass transport … at least none that can compete with it. However, one thing that can help, especially on longer stretches, is to increase the speed limit - And don't be afraid to make it go REALLY fast ! That said, AFAIK the highest capacity traffic connection that I know of, is ….. dun-dun-duuun … the Pedestrian/Bicycle Pathway ! I have yet to max one out, even if it's black with pedestrians, they still keep going - Frankly, I don't think they *have* a maximum limit. If you want a city to go past 500k, you will NEED high capacity mass transit *AND* a lot of pedestrians ! Otherwise, you will hit the maximum vehicle cap, and your industry will hurt .. badly ! Also, Offices don't produce nearly as much traffic as regular dirty industry. *_At high population levels, reduction of traffic, is the name of the game !!_* I hope you can use any of this for your city building pleasure. 😁

I would love to see more of this city! Particularly in terms of getting people to cycle and increasing walkability would be cool. Someone else already suggested this, but a challenge using canals and ferries would be cool to see, too! I once tried that and couldn't really figure out how to get people to use the ferries instead of walking.

A city with every highway & main road underground! (only two-lane or pathways aboveground)

This s a legit endeavor some cities IRL want to achieve: have as little private vehicles as possible and shove everyone onto walking shoes/bikes/buses/trams/metro.

With islands like that you should have the highway run through the water and weave between the islands. Just have exits branch off. Highways take up a lot of squares.

What about creating a transport hub at the highway exit where the sims can hop on various different transports into the city? You could have monorail, ferries & maybe cable cars taking them into the city where they could change to buses, subway & trains to move around. Of course you’d need loads of parking lots at the transport hub...

I laughed so hard at the ghost garbage collector.

Your commentary in this video is hilarious.

This will help my traffic improve very much! I have a metro network, around 20k citizens and a traffic flow of roughly the same percentage. Wonder if I can get it up to 90 percent?
