Actually, it's a major clusterfuck. There's so many problems with this, almost everything needs to be re-engineered. First of all, a decent interchange has four way direction - including coming back in the opposite direction (a way to make up for an earlier mistake). To keep up the speed, thus the efficiency, the elevation needs to be less than 2% and turns with less than a radius of 600 m for 120 km/h. Number of lanes also need to be increased in the interchange to keep up the speed. To make it all economically viable there needs to be buildings, parking lots, shopping center, restaurants and hotels in each quadrant. This is best done with a roundabout to connect it all which second as an alternative for they who are confused or not sure where to go and need to circles a couple of times before they choose. An intersection like this needs a capacity of 50x the speed limit in km/h to avoid jams on a day when the highways are 90% utilized. Finally, all acceleration and de-acceleration lanes need to be at least 30 seconds which translates into 800 meters for a 120 km/h highway. An interchange basically needs 10x the size of the speed limit - for 120 km/h it means 1.2 square km. Anything less and you will produce jams and poor economy.

My idea exactly! If I'm right now you have 0 and -12 main roads connecting to the +12 and +24 overpasses. Using -24 instead of +24 would make the maximal height difference lower. Then bump up everything +6 and you have full symmetry!

@orthrus4490

It'd also be way more realistic. 12m is almost 40 ft tall. 24m is close to 80ft. That's absurd considering most bridges don't eclipse 25ft of clearance. Even if that's the surface of the road, it's only 5 feet or so thick. 10 max

LA has the world's first stack Interchange, build in 1953 for the crossover of the SR-110 and the US-101. It's usually called "The Four-Level" in LA traffic broadcasting--though the type of interchange is named after one of its older nicknames, "The Stack." The turning lanes bow out a bit more before beginning the turn and pass closer together at the center, so it looks more like a flower from above than an iron cross, and actually has the straight-thrus on the top and lower-middle decks.

Actually this one only takes up less space in the plane/plain, but it needs a lot more space in the depth than a clover leaf. Basically you can build the whole clover leaf on ground level except for the center piece where the main directions cross, which is considerably less construction effort. Additionally, a clover leaf junction allows for going back in reverse, so you could easily come back to a junction you missed previuosly. Despite this, the stacked interchange might actually perform better, especially in the game environment.

Really cool! More of that please!

High marks for symmetry but the one suggestion I have is that you make the overhead ramps diverge a little farther away from the straight through routes. It's rare that they are that tight together, usually they'll curve out more before changing direction and crossing over head. That way you can fit more columns at more realistic spots.

👏 GREAT tutorial, sir! Superb! 👏

The most ingenious interchange is like the Rte. 8 and I-84 interchange in Waterbury CT, where you have all four directions stacked each having their own level, thereby reducing the horizontal footprint!

This is the nicest-looking, most compact stack I've ever seen. I'd put one in my city except we already have one and it intermixes local and express highways, effectively making it a 4-direction 8-way, if that makes sense. It's very wiggly and organic-looking, and I call it the Big Chungus because it's absolutely outrageous. Actually, I think tomorrow I should build a sanitized version of the Chungus in the editor (one that isn't trying to squeeze around historic city buildings). I could plop it into that interchange testing map and run all 8 highways through it. That would be fun to watch!

For measuring the 45°, I would demolish the highways in the center except for the little 4*4 square, go out 14u perpemdicular from all the corners so you get a #, then connect the ends, then with grid snapping on you draw the 2u road parallel to the ~20u road centered on it's ~10u node, demolish the ~20u road, draw another 2u road in it's place, demolish the other 2u road, done. This is gonna be 2m off compared to the method shown in the video, also certainly not as easy or quick, but you don't need any mods for it. My 2 cents. Great tutorial btw, I was always afraid of building a stack interchange. With thar 4 levels it's pretty intimidating. So thank you!

Nice one, though I'd really have taken the time to turn the lower ramps into two lane highways for completeness' sake. What makes the stack so cool is that it's basically conflict-free. Adding yields on every corner creates four major conflicts. Also, concerning visuals , I always use Network Skins to remove the lane arrows and streetlights on my highways for extra realism. It just looks weird to have a highway or intersection in the middle of nowhere lit up like a Christmas tree. It also removes the nuisance of lamp posts clipping through the ramp above. 😉

A modification would be to have the crossovers occur about halfway between the point where the right hand turns branch off and where the two highways cross.

Glad it worked

Welcome to my mini-essay. Having the elevation difference at 12m is overkill. The interstate standards state that the minimum overpass clearance is 16ft (4.9m) [1], which is apparently only necessary due to national security concerns (for very tall military vehicles) [2]. Assuming that the base of a Cities: Skylines overpass is about 2m, that would make the actual minimum elevation difference 4.9m + 2m = 6.9m. Adding a bit for roundness and just in case, an 8m elevation difference is sensible. 12m is 1.5 times more than this. Having too high of an elevation difference introduces problems. Firstly, a taller overpass is more expensive, and requires longer slip lanes which are more expensive, but we can ignore the cost aspect for this analysis. The grade of the slip lanes is of more significance. The grade of the steepest slip lane as 8.57%, calculated by dividing the change in elevation (24m) by its horizontal length (35sq * 8m/sq = 280m). For context, on level terrain like in this situation, the interstate standards allow a maximum of 4% as the grade of the highway, up to 5% when in an urban area [1]. The subject is, however, a slip lane which has different specifications. The absolute maximum grade of a *compact* connector road is 10%, but the recommended maximum is 8% [3] (worded as "must not" vs. "should not"). If the slip lane in question was classified as compact, then it would be in violation of recommended guidelines. Compact grade-separated interchanges are distinguished from fully grade-separated interchanges by the condition that at least one of the roads is not free flowing [4], which is not the case here as a stack interchange is, by definition, free-flowing [5]. Furthermore, compact interchanges are not permitted on highways [3], making it clear that this situation must be fully grade-separated. For fully grade-separated interchanges, the maximum permitted grade for a slip lane is 6% [3], which is less than 8.57%, which means that your interchange is AGAINST SPECIFICATION and therefore must be PURGED IMMEDIATELY. 1: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstate_Highway_standards 2: safety.fhwa.dot.gov/geometric/pubs/mitigationstrategies/chapter3/3_verticalclearance.cfm 3: www.standardsforhighways.co.uk/prod/attachments/871d6bff-0126-41b7-bf34-a05c7e74a52f 4: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_separation 5: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_interchange

Very nice. Only issue is you have Level 1 crossing left at Level 4, creating a steeper incline than needed. I would make Level 1 left at Level 3. And Level 2 left at Level 4, to keep the inclines symmetrical in all directions.

Masterpiece

I would recommend adding a short section of two-lane road at each merge, for lane mathematics sake. It'll help it flow a little more naturally. EDIT: seconds later, the very thing i said is recommended in the video, lol.

There are two partial cloverleafs I do. The “perfect parclo” is the smaller of the two. I suspect you’re using the “single point parclo”.

IRL, I would hate driving on that, and would prefer the ground level right turn, but love the look of it in game.

I love this and just built it myself. Only question is how do you get your roads that colour? Mine are a boring grey.

Not bad, but I would have the ramps go a bit further from the main highway. You had the ramps nearly at the edge of the main highway. If the ramps were further, then it would be easier to fit in pillars for the ramps. The design you showed in the video would work best in a city where a larger interchange would be more expensive due to land acquisition costs.

I worry about how the merging would work with the right hand turns, seems dangerous to have them merge at that angle, but you can always just change the lane math a bit and it would be fine.

Make space inbetween your main highways as they meet at the interchange so that your left hand turns can branch off the middle. This way left turning cars can stay in the left lane, cars continuing forward can stay in the center lane, and cars turning right can stay in the right lane. It gives the traffic better flow and is more logical.

Hey Yumble! Sense you noticed my comment, I thought I'd ask. (Xbox Remastered btw) On my 4 Way stack Interchange, similar to what you built, I got a long stretch Sunken Highway Level 1, 6 contour lines deep, it takes 3-4 small height adjustments (in the node snap options, the height is at the smallest step), from the bottom, to level with the ground, where the ground Highway crossing is elevated another 3 steps. The highway has plenty clearance crossing. I was trying to make it where the Left turns of the sunken Highway are between the two highways (so level 2), this making the elevated ground Highway Level 3, and that highways Left turns going over the top. I'm have trouble lining all of it. Partly cause the two highways are not lined with selves on either side of the interchange! My question is... Sense you discussed your interchange here as the highways being Leve 1 & 2, the ramps L3 & 4; if mine are 1 & 3 for the highways, and the left turn ramps are 2 & 4, what space do I need in between so the level 2 ramps fit between, and would I still be able to line those crossing same angle?

Hey! Feel free to throw some pics in the discord. I cant quite visualize what you mean, but we should be able to sort it out there.

Sure, but anyone can help!

best stack interchange ever made.

Racoon City was looking for the perfect interchange and found it here

I was really starting to worry there wouldn't be any right hand turns!

Would going underground help with the stack interchange to keep the height down? At least the crossing roads could have one go underground or in a valley to miss the other road, that would mean the cross over roads would only be two stacks above the 'ground level' since one would be in the 'basement'. This would, of course, raise the price a little and be an issue during any situations that allow flooding.

I prefer lowering the earth rather than tunneling, but yes. -15, -5, 5, 15 are good heights imo

This video needs an update please! Much more helpful tools at your disposal and with the added updates in the node controller and the painted lines! Oh yes I cannot wait to see it! :D
