I think the problem is that because of the side road for the cargo train terminal, and your lane connectors, people have to go a long way to get their cargo from a plane onto a train. If you allowed people to get from the main terminal building to the cargo train station without going through a big junction, or taking a u-turn at a roundabout, that would help.

It's really a roundabout way of getting it done, you could say

I think you can also connect the cargo train directly to an internal airport road, so the cargo coming by train doesn't has to go through the terminal. Because isn't that the point of the cargo-train-airport-terminal? To get cargo directly to the planes. The way it's set up now, you could also use just the normal cargo-train-station.

Yup, the whole way through the video I was waiting for some kind of realisation that he spent ages designing a road set-up that doesn't allow for the transfer of cargo, and it never came. Sort yourself out, Mr.

There should be a direct connection between the airport and the train station. A lot of trucks from the train station are going to the airpot, and the reason you lost all the trucks on the airport lane with the turn-around is that all the truck are now going out of the airport from the airfield side and to to the train station through the roundabout. Another idea is to place a ferry terminal near the airport as well, that way you may have fewer trucks from that other place you briefly showed that also had a ferry pier nearby

Yep, that airport cargo terminal does not work as expected. I did some testing and found some really strange behaviour (UK spelling). I found trains would not go to the Airport Cargo Station in all cases. I could not get trains to come to the Airport Station in one case and putting a Regular Cargo terminal a few train segments away from the Airport Cargo Terminal finally got the trains to show up, but the trains would go through the Airport Cargo terminal and around the block just to get to the regular Cargo terminal. Weird.

I've noticed that the game seems to tier some options and support them over others. it seems like they are prioritizing the airport train station for exports over all other cargo train stations. maybe severing the outbound connections from the airport train station will get them to increase utilization of more local cargo rail stations for exports? IMO that airport terminal should be mainly used for cargo coming to and from the airport, but it doesn't seem to serve that function well. I'd also add that most of the traffic on the road in front of the airport train station was for the airport train station, so doubling the road didn't end up positively affecting anything.

The problem with dedicated lanes at the final signal controlled junction is that the straight-on capacity (of receiving two lanes of traffic) isn't been used, you have just one straight-on lane into two lanes. The one straight-on lane should be two lanes staight-on (one shared with right turners). Lane mathematics is required at junctions as well as on motorways.

The airport DLC station seems to export using both trucks and trains but import ONLY via trucks. This truck issue will only get worse especially if the transfer mod doesn't work. I saw this on another CS youtuber who got really mad when the airport station never imported using trains and only used trucks and almost crippled his whole city.

I think what you need is a junction where you put that little slip lane. That will divert those not wanting the cargo station or airport. You also need to allow for a connection between the station and the airport so some can avoid the highway altogether.

Biffa, I think that the issue you have with the cargo airport is that the train station is outside the airport. The way I am understanding it is that the roads with the cargo buildings in the median are supposed to be separated from the rest of your road network with the connection being the cargo terminal only. The airport train station/terminal is meant to be inside this restricted area with the planes. If you follow the trucks exiting your airport terminal you should see almost all of them want to go to the airport train station. I think putting the train station behind the cargo terminal and on the side of the planes will also prevent trucks from the rest of the city trying to use it and clogging up the whole system. I also think the trucks from the airport de-spawn at the train terminal rather than going back. I am not 100% on that though and it might just be when the train terminal is within the airport. Thanks for the awesome content Biffa!

SO no one is going to the cargo buildings for the cargo airport. I think you might want to double check that. Also the cargo train terminal that came with the update is either buggy or runs weirdly because I dont think you got any trains in after you connected the lines to the city. It has two spots for trains but only one works.

First, turn the intersection near the cargo airport into a turbo roundabout, these are effective at moving a lot of traffic. Second, replace the current interchange for something like a stack interchange. I know it is not meant for that, but it will work much better then what's there at the moment.

best thing to do here is overbuild this junction. flyover plus underpass for straight on traffic, for intersecting sides. dedicated turns for non crossing traffic, and at level timed traffic lights for crossing turn traffic. I think yumbl used a great mod for creating one lane flyovers within the 3 lane road. then use that as a template or asset, and go around the city, add it as many places as we can.

Well we could name that hearse invasion "Men in black memorial day"

For the traffic fix: The only thing I see wrong with that junction itself is that at 39:00 you see that while left-turning traffic is coming from the top right to the bottom right, the right turning traffic from the bottom left is allowed to do the same. You probably just need to go into the timed traffic light setup to remove those right turns in each phase (they already have twice as many opportunities to go than all other movements). But then the junction could be able to handle the traffic with the right ratio of green phases. Another thing to consider: The road you click on at 39:57 has 2 lanes going to the first (bottom) exit of that roundabout, and that's blocking the path of the traffic that wants to cross the highway. The interchange isn't bad. It's a partial cloverleaf, imho one of the best service interchanges. (Only a "Single Point ParClo", or something completely over-engineered like a turbine or stack interchange would be better.) It's only problem is that the roundabouts are hurting more than they are helping. On a parclo you only have a single conflict at each of those 2 points, which you can easily solve with "give way" signs and lane management. But to properly do the lane management, you'd need to turn those roundabouts into 4-way junctions.

Hi Biff, I thought, pretty early on in your video that the train cargo road traffic could gain access from the Northern roundabout (just off the highway) so that rail and air road traffic were kept separate. Liked the idea for the timed traffic lights though - maybe with a couple of changes coming out of the terminals (I noticed harldy anyone turning left [from the south junction] so you could get more throughput by having the left lane for left AND straight on?

There's always the option of replacing the crossroads with an intersection. Most of your traffic crosses straight across. Very few will be lefthand turns. Prioritize on 2 lane roads going straight ahead crossing over eachother. Single lane liproads going right and merge them along a couple of nodes. Left turning traffic should be dealt with on other sections: slip lane to the highway, sliplane going right back to the airport from the cargoterminal etc.

I am very happy New Tealand has survived!! Creator Agusingnavy has created two versions of a Pinavia interchange on the Workshop that are well worth a look. Both work beautifully and are stunning to watch in game. The standard round one is "Pinavia Interchange", and the oval one is "Pinavia Ellipse Interchange". Please consider them for they really are favorites of mine.

I’m having the exactly same issues in my city. First everyone dies, then all hearses working 24/7. Then airport cargo creating chaos through the whole city. Lol it seems that trucks are going a lot slower to the airport cargo station and it’s causing a big backup.

This may be addressed later in the video (I haven't finished it yet), but would the "Prefer local district services" option potentially have trouble with the way you have your university district set up? It's one district (unless that changed - I missed a few episodes) spread out over several small locations, and I'm wondering if it will try to get services from one of the other locations in the same district across the city. Anyway, back to watching the video :)

The "Automatic Bulldoze v2" mod is a really handy one if you've got loads of abandoned buildings to delete

40:45 Maybe you over engineered the highway intersection. The residential traffic from the west needs a more direct way to make a turn to drive north. Your current setup forces them to mix with industrial and cargo traffic headed from the west to south that are driving to the cargo airport/train area.

As always a fun video. You should invite Yumble to do a guest appearance to fix that junction at the airport. you have promoted him so much and you both have very different ways of viewing junctions.

I'm glad you changed the airport name. I had some reservations about an airport whose abbreviation was MIA.

I experienced the same issue with my old city. Once I built the airport/cargo airport from the new dlc, I had a massive death wave that consumed my city. My population dropped from 125,000 to around 80,000. I had to plop quite a few crematorium facilities to boost the efforts and my population did recover. I’m relatively mod light but still not sure where the conflict lies. The usage for my new airport/cargo airport dropped off precipitously as did usage for every facet of my mass transit. My road traffic didn’t increase interestingly enough. My city pretty much reached a point of stagnation despite recovering from the death wave. 🤷

23:10 When you click on the buildings to see routes it shows only vehicles going to the building you clicked on. So in the case of death care buildings you only see their routes when their vehicles are returning to their buildings, which is after the vehicles have collected all the dead they can collect.

I think you could do a go-around-lane at the roundabout (the southern one at the Highway junction), so traffic can flow straight to your new 4-way. You might need more lanes on the off-ramp though, and your slip lane might also get in the way. You should also watch where all those cars from your terminals are going, maybe you can add a shortcut on the right to the highway, or skip the 4-way junction.

I believe there is an in-game zoning policy that restricts the vehicle type "Trucks", could maybe use this to implement an easier slip lane rather than reconstructing the entire highway interchange? It seemed only the trucks wanted to continue on into the cargo area. Thanks for the great content and smiles Biffa!

I think the traffic is caused by the new DLC double track cargo station. Had the same problem in my city, it was backing up traffic down the highway all the way across the city. It’s almost like it’s too slow cycling the trucks and trucks will forgo the cargo station on the other side of the city mere blocks away to instead drive all the way to the airport. Swapped mine out for a double track asset from the workshop that I was using before Airports and the problem went mostly away. Still have traffic, but not like that. Also don’t have as many trucks trying to get to it from the wrong side of the city.

Hi Biffa, I want to say thank you for taking your personal time in making these fantastic videos for us to watch and enjoy so much. I have learned so much by your videos because you are a fantastic teacher. I might have been an architect had met you earlier in life. Sorry to hear that you are not doing the 10 TOP MODS any more they were great. Again thanks and God bless.

I never thought I'd see a mass grave in cities skylines

After this long time playing and watching this city we all might need a little tour throughout the city. Maybe an episode of timelapses and visits here and there. Like in the Japanese distict would be cool. I think with this you definitly unlocked the big church I guess which needs x,xxx abandoned houses.

I do think the intended use of the cargo airport train station is to connect it directly to the airport. Reforming that area to really tick might make a good entry into a fixit episode.

Biffa, that Continued version seems a bit riskier, it is being taken over and updated but the updater has comments turned off and there's comments on the old mod saying the Continued version broke their city. The old version still works with Airports, the bug with the cargo train terminal is from the actual DLC, not the mod. Avanya, the CO community manager, she said they're looking into it on the CO forums.

For the fix at the end, I would suggest removing the intersection altogether and just allowing each axis (east-west and north-south) to go straight ahead.

I think you’re having the same issue with the airport cargo terminal that I was having. For some reason it seems to make that terminal the priority terminal for all cargo trucks. I ended up bulldozing mine as it was creating gridlock throughout the city. It’s obviously only become an issue in your city once you connected the terminal to your main train network.

The delete mode should have a dedicated part for only abandoned houses. It should come with different sizes just to speed up the deleting process.

You can split the traffic. The existing highwayjunction can move a lot to the left an there connects the road, that heads out to the natural reserve. Right off the airport (maybe over the river) there can you build a new highwayjunction only for both parts with heavy traffic: the airport, and the train-hub.

Create a massive slip lane going from west highway to the north. Create a flyover for the ex-roundabout for those wanting to go straight on as that was heavy. Try adding a motorway junction to the west of the current one to alleviate traffic. You could do one to the east as well so people can get directly to the airport from the motorway without having to use that junction. Hope you take my ideas into consideration.

I think the biggest problem with the airport is that you have funneled all your trying to travel between airport and train terminal to the one intersection. You should either adjust the lane connector at the train terminal entrance or place a slip or connect your turnarounds to allow a more direct path to the train terminal

In your lane mathematics axioms and theorems, you should think about the exit lanes : tou think more about the incoming lanes, each being dedicated to one direction. Now add to that good thinking : the exits of an intersections can have conflicting merging of vehicles from different inputs, so you should have dedicated output lanes for those, just for two nodes, then they can merge. Take a look at one cross of all 3+1 roads, it's awful. All 3+3 works, so depending on traffic you can modulate. 3+2 can work but keep looking at what is happening on the exits and add lanes if needed.

And this perfectly demonstrates why I don't use many mods. Great video as usual Biffa. 👍

There's a problem at the cargo airport in which the any trucks that want to transfer goods between the airport and the railroad area now have to leave the airport area in order to turn around, come back onto the airport grounds, and go to the area the goods are destined for. The trucks were using the large roundabout that was changed to a timed light. now they will travel even further in order to turn around. Since the purpose of the airport is to export and import good then I'd recommend disconnecting the rail link to external cities. Other train stations may handle the importing and exporting goods. Move the rail station back to where it was originally placed and connect it to the internal tracks. This will reduce truck traffic in a number of ways. It will stop trucks from using the rail station to import and export goods. By reverting the position of the rail station trucks won't have to make a long journey to get from the airport to the rail station and vice versa. This just came to me, how about a "round about" between the rail station and the airport in a counter clockwise direction? I used quotes as it'd be a blockish roundabout as the top and bottom would be the rail station and airport respectively. The airport and rail station would be separated by a small distance for the roundabout to fit. Double lanes would be used on the top and bottom to allow vehicles to pass if they are not interested in that building. On the western side, if the rail station was north, curved exit and entrance lanes heading west would exist. Vehicles do not have to exit the roundabout so that they may easily take cargo from the rail station to the airport.

For your junction at the end you've got 2 'inbound' lanes but everyone's always picking the right most. You could use lane connectors and switch it so everyone always have a clear right turn then do custom traffic light staging so everyone can always turn right as they'd be no crossing then stage the other directions to prevent crossing.

I think you should add a way for them to get onto the opposite side of the freeway instead of having to go through the roundabout causing unnecessary traffic. so for example, have an elevated on-ramp/junction curving to the other side of the freeway (westbound), almost like the vanilla junctions but longer, and better. Better explained like: Start off with the junction (that is going to connect to the other side of the freeway) just west of the loop, and curve it all the way across the other side, over where it connects with the on-ramp going westbound. So like a U going from the eastbound highway to the westbound on-ramp, bypassing the roundabout junction. Hope that explains that well enoug. Also, maybe find out WHY they are wanting to turn around and go the opposite way on the freeway as well.

With the new traffic light crossroads, you could improve things for traffic coming from the west by making lane 1 into a right-or-straight lane. Hardly any traffic is turning right, so it's a wasted lane, and by allowing two lanes straight on you can get twice as much traffic through in each cycle of the lights.

I'm glad you recovered, Biffa. If you hadn't I suspect there would have been accusations of foul play... Mayor Biffa in the cargo airport with a transfer mod.

On the Xbox version there’s a way to have the bulldozer only demolish abandoned building, and the brush size for it can be expanded. It’s not a mod but built into the base game. Much quicker than manually demolishing each building.

Hi Biffa. With your "hugo there" at the cargo train station junction you are stopping them from turning right which means all of the incoming plane cargo trucks are going to the south part of the junction to go east to the train cargo station instead of going through the plane terminal like they were originally, hence why you have so much traffic.

@Biffa That east road to that rail line has way too much traffic to go through any intersection, I think you should make a dedicated highway connection for just that, and add long exit ramps and extra road to absorb the traffic to it.

You have a regular bulldoze bar where you can set it to abandon and it S built in as I play on PlayStation 4 and I just hit a button combo and it only destroys abandoned buildings so maybe lay around with buttons and see what happens.

For the time traffic light at the end, you should check Yumbl video regarding how to set them up. Here you can have a continuous right turn switched on, which would improve the flow greatly. Or you can try an overpass intersection which I think would be the best way to fix this lock up

Stuff coming from airport (right to left on bottom road) can't get to cargo train now (left to right on top road) @16:05 That's why they're not 'cuttinf through' the airport. They have to 'leave' the airport to the roundabout and then get on the main road towards the cargo train adding extra traffic to the roundabout (changed to timed traffic light at the end)

Loved seeing you make the mistake I do: focus on some big building project and ignore the rest of the city as it falls apart. It was more impressive seeing it recover. For the traffic if you're having massive numbers of traffic going for essentially a u turn, look at the exchanges to either side to see why they're being forced to go the wrong way in the first place. Maybe add a u turn lane before the exchange.

Woo Hoo like number 1.5K! Great save Biffa, I was afraid that the Alien Rock park would become a tribute to the lost.

Cities Skylines really needs better train logic and signalling. For when the roundabout alone doesn't cut it, try a cut-through roundabout. The busiest Route (if it's straight across) gets a road straight through the middle with traffic signals on each point it crosses the roundabout. The traffic on the roundabout can't turn left into the cut-through road and the traffic on the cut-through road can't turn left to join the roundabout at the second junction. For reference, look at coordinates 53.361684, -2.293845 on Google Maps.

On the north side of the intersection there is a rotary. I would make a direct two way road from there to the airport rail facility bypassing the tolls and everything else. Then separate the cargo road from the airport road.

There's so much traffic going through that intersection that I think the only real long term solution is a proper interchange.

I absolutely know about Spiff, but "Biffing Sprit" in my head became biffing 'sprit, a bowsprit with a boxing glove on it.

3:54 that 'hello there' had me in stitches

i think instead of the four-way-junctions, you could have two t-junctions spaced apart. or you could run a small highway from the airport across the highway and do a stacked interchange, lile few candy did. anyway, this was a fun new tealand episode!

Hey Biffa! Make the access to both airport and rail transfer single directional with two all direction access motorway ramps either side of the terminal. Love ya work!

I think what's happening with the Cargo Airport's rail terminal is everyone wants to deliver there instead of the local ones. And since you connected an Airport internal road to the general road network, people just go through tot he city, ie.: missing the whole point of the airport terminal and customs checks... So anyone coming out the terminal building should just drop of at the train station, or the trains should deliver to there and vans would carry it in to the airport and the planes...

09:00 Use the spawn point mod to stop the lorries exciting through the back of the building. They're trying to exit the airport on the same road as all the rail hub traffic. Making them exit from the front would remove the need for an extra road.

Hi. I think in your cargo airport the entrance/main building would be better placed toward the left, near the first roundabout. The way you have it now all the traffic has to circle round at the end, mingle with the city traffic and go to train terminal afterwards. After deleting the roundabout they even had to go farther away to turn around.

This junction/roundabout/intersection triple could instead be a single multi-level monster of a junction. They aren’t cute and I’d rather avoid them if possible (and they are a pain to edit), but it may be fitting for an edge-of-the-map cargo traffic situation. Sort all traffic in one place, and maybe even connect to tunnels that directly take those trucks to/from where needed in the city.

Cemeteries dispatch more hearses. Using them as a buffer for your crematoriums helps a lot. They're like dead people warehouses.

I think you can take out the south road since the east road is connected to the airport anyway. That would make the timed traffic light more efficient, as well as make more use of the east road (that is currently only used for the cargo train station as the south road is a shorter distance then going through the eart road to enter the airport)
