High density schools? Maybe in the main commercial zone. Great way to slope into the downtown skyline.

I'm so glad that you are using more mods for New Tealand, more mods is just what was needed to make this city even more beautiful than before.

Yes this looks like a lovely neighbourhood! ♥ The only thing I would change is to have bigger and bushier trees on the wide padestrian path. I was wondeering about services, but I'm sure you got that covered ☺ As well as your plans for the rest of your downtown area. I'm looking forward to see it being build up!

Actually like the initial curved road layout better.

The left ramp is correct to only have the option to turn right. They turn to the top from the off ramp on the right. In fact, I don't know why the ramp on the right needs the ability to turn left across traffic when they can use the ramp on the left.

Just what I needed for weekend 😊😊❤

Whatever happens with the downtown skyline, make sure the buildings leave minimal shadows on the lower buildings, so may need to space supertalls out more. Some nice plazas, transit hubs, and even a monument building would work 🤔

It looks so good! 👏🏼 I can't wait to see what you'll do with the rest of the city 😊

Great episode and looks great! Great update from the previous area ^^ Small idea: You could add walking path/bridge from Chester square to the nearest monorail hub (next to the soccer arena). It would link city transportation even more and ofc ease up traffic ^^

Always like the pedestrian areas! Well done. Suggestion- not sure if youre looking for unique assets outside of the creator packs, but I really like the 800 superior building. Adds a bit of orange-y color and height without being too tall.

Looks good! More taller buildings. You can never have enough.

I love New Tealand! What about doing another round of increasing bike-ability around the city? It think some of the highways could use some bike-highways-paths to get to other areas.

Imagine walking through this Pedastrian Area during summer. It's scorching hot with just these small trees and all the asphalt.

Hi Biffa, when are you doing another Blightea-on-the-Wold video? I’m really missing that city.

I literally just remembered this game today - currently re-downloading!

Heavy goods vehicles are using your new area as a shortcut. I think you should ban them from the area. But you should be careful to still allow them to access the pedestrian zone service point.

12:43: The power line connection is not required, power has jumped across at the other end. 17:22: The power line is definitely not a requirement now. Perhaps you just like it. It's your city, mate.

Looks great! Might want to turn on the policy that keeps heavy trucks from cutting through there, though. There seems to be a lot of that going on, and the residents probably don't like that too much.

@fil23ralliart

Or just enforce the deliver everything policy for the pedestrian area, then the trucks will only go to the service points.

You could also use some financial buildings. In Washington Park there’s a nice spot for you to put the stock exchange, which would look nice with the park feel of the district

The German city of Erfurt has a good part of its downtown pedestrian only with trams including a bigger plaza where a couple of lines meet. You could look into that for bigger pedestrian districts with public transportation that isn't buses.

I know I've said this before.. but you make this game an art form.

20:50 Oh. I am DEFINITELY going to start smuggling candy bars!

Hi Biffa! Thanks for all the vids 😊. I’ve noticed a clear lack of sports venues (both professional, and public) beyond the standard football and baseball fields/stadiums. There are, for example, virtually no swimming pools (public or backyard), no hockey rings, no equestrian centers, cricket fields, no ski resorts, and so on. Is this intentional, an oversight, or are these assets not available? Thanks in advance for your response. Keep making these entertaining videos. 😊 L. S.

29:15 this shot is really beautiful

For better sense of realism, metro tunnels and station maybe can be used by two or more lanes. And i would like if tunnels dont zigzag 😅

good job now another new tealand fix included the traffic fix

"What a Mistaka to Maka" sounds like that guy from Allo Allo. Nostalgic.

Your new residence has no parking especially with all the shopping. Plus you took away the elementary school, buildings might not upgrade. Nice look to build

It's looking posh alright. So for the next area, more post-modern looking buildings and skylines would be cool. And maybe pedestrianized too... Thanks for the entertainment mate, cheers :)

So nice to see you back with us even though I know you're super busy.

You forgot lane mathematics on the highway near the CBD ! I think there is too much building near each other, maybe more landmarks and skyscrapper would be fantastic for your skylines :)

It looks lovely and much better than before!!! Great job bringing it up to date 🤩

Loving the content! Keep it up Biffa.

So nice to see this, imo zoning and getting the stock buildings is horrible and ugly but i get it that you use that for bigger cities, anyway keep up the great work!!

5:47 I've been telling Phil that's a mistakuh for years; seems like he's started picking up on recently, but theres still a long way to go..

Hate to say it but I like the before at 30:00 due to more trees. The view you are showing will never be seen by the people that live there, but the trees will be. Also seems more like the city grew to the before, instead of tearing everything down and forcing planning.

the metro station with two parallel stations would have made more sense I think. You'd be less winky wonky in the metro layout.

Looks great! I'd love to live there! Spiffy! I'd be a bit worried about being hit by a truck... other than that its great.

16:35 that building is the Pirellone from Milan, my city😍

I love those little bicycle parking assets!

0:31 I have yet to watch the video, but there are 2 unwatchable pillars of the railway bridge XD

Know this a while ago but i kinda wish they add theses mods the uk builds and stuff in the vanilla game like probably cities skyline 2 do you agree? Love your videos btw:)

Sitting down now with some whiskey and watching this before I play

I play on ps4 without the airport n pomanades dlc and i find that the perfect grid is a 40*40 with 2 spaces between residential n commercial Works best especially when upgrading to high residential, just switch the outer ring to offices with overhead crosswalks in between for transit and highschoolers

Love the city builds, but what ever happened to the intersection load testing app/mod? Would love to see some more detailed looks at different interchanges and intersections.

hey Biffa, do you play around with realistic populations settings for high density residential? I'm finding my cities to be far smaller than yours for similar population once I start unlocking High density options. I currently have a city at around 90k pop, but there's around 1/5th of the high-density zoning. I might be mistaking a lot of those buildings I'm seeing as residential when they might be offices or commercial props. Like sometimes I can zone three 16x8 blocks of hi density self-sufficient and be gaining 600-700ppl down the bottom for a while.

loving you! a construction site will look graet in the skyline. also, you put too much Pedestrians zones, in real cities there aren't so many Pedestrians zones.

So when dlr assets in poplar park? Maybe a small depot just outside of it?

I wish I didn't care about my residents like you. I always end up not redoing a whole zone because I feel bad displacing families and seeing the sad faces 😢

Have you tried out the create curve tool instead of the create connection mode tool? That tool would make your connections way smoother.

I appreciated the Allo Allo reference there, Biffa 💯

You should use giant redwood trees in the skyline area.

"(... the skyline) is pretty poor ...", well if i made a city that had as nice a skyline, I'd be staisfied, But, then, I am not the Biff man.

Hi Biffa Long time watcher Keep up the good work I have a question, I loaded into my city today and from nowhere it's saying building already exists and I know I'm not at building limit and haven't added any extra mods lately Any idea's?

Will the downtown be the Financial District, Biffa? A stock exchange smack dab in the middle of it could provide the boost! 😏

The prettiest residential buildings are the green cities high density residential 1x2.

Nice Video!

how are you doing with schools or other quality-of-life buildings in the area? Is there enough in the area outside the new zone to make up for the lack?

hi biffa! is there anywhere I can find an updated list of the mods you use?

"What is most important aspect of your city?" Uh... Reaching "unlock everything" bit... Then how to remove the grid based, oversized regions, without loosing all of them money... And then actually do the city (yes I know I could just use integrated mods to bypass unlocking bit... but I'm not into speedrunning... and always hope I can get it right without dying financially.

Biffa you could add another metro stop where the two lines cross to clean the routes

i suggest you should use the node controller more often and check your junctions and bridges etc, your nodes look not that good

When the green metro and yellow metro lines criss-cross underneath Coleridge, is that a metro intersection, or are they on two different elevations?

I’d hate to live in those high density wall to wall residential buildings in Chester square…. facing the back of all the shops and commercial stuff… no thanks

put the business park in the center of your sky line

let me get my cup of tea!

Yay!!

Lovely build, well done.

Does that area don't need services like school, fire station and hospitals?

make the sky line in the front IT cluster biuldings

A very nice build and you're making use of what was an abandoned subway line (Dean Sq.). One tip - if you had put in a parallel platform underground metro station you wouldn't have the horky borkiness of the braided Yellow 🟨 and Green 🟩 Lines.

Too bad they don't have a flat iron building that would go great behind Coleridge plaza
