I had the greatest idea of all times when I decided to fix cities myself. It's shocking the cataclysmic cities that are sent to the workshop to be fixed. Some of them have so many mods in the save files that cannot be fixed while others take a good amount of time but the vast majority of them usually have the same problems: roundabouts badly set, lack of main roads to ease the traffic through and out of the city and too much industry, causing hundreds of trucks to run clogging up the city.

This was an interesting one, those junctions are crazy with the on and off ramps super close. Getting it up to nearly 80% is quite a feat!! Watching these helps me with my traffic 🙂

16:03: Slip lane is restricted to remaining in rightmost lane.

I have to say, I do like micro managing my lanes with TM:PE. It's the only way that I can make the traffic behave reasonably realisticly going around roundabouts. What I try and do is draw in the lane connections that would match the line markings on a real roundabout. This means that you tend to shuffle the lanes across after an exit, which allows all lanes to get to where they need to go. It's a thing of wonder when it works.

That was another master class fixing the traffic on a huge beauty of a city in with just 9 building squares.

That's an interesting city to look at. Lots of shapes and forms. It's honestly amazing how most of the problems with traffic will go away if you have properly set up roundabouts and do your lane math. Allow nodes for lane changes is probably a good 3rd tip.

After watching Biffa doing his miracle, I wish Biffa could do wonder and fix our country traffic condition🥺🥺🥺

I love watching the metro numbers skyrocket as you add bigger trains, more stops and CCW routes etc. This was a beautiful city!

unfortunately, highway interchanges where the oncoming traffic meets the exiting traffic in the same lane is a common occurrence east of the Mississippi. They are the worst interchanges and cause huge traffic jambs during rush hour. They are extremely unsafe and you are constantly rubber necking because you could merge into someone or you could hit someone in front of you. You could even do both at the same time. I avoid these interchanges as much as possible but sadly they are EVERYWHERE! 40°47'05°N 81°23'04°W I HATE THIS INTERCHANGE!!

To be fair, in the town I live in there's a roundabout (maybe technically a traffic circle since it's got traffic lights) with a few businesses and a restaurant in the middle of it. However, all of that is built off an internal one-way road. There's also one small retail park and a multi-story car park connected to the same roundabout to add to the fun. So it's got 4 exits for major roads, 2 exits for retail/parking, another exit for a very small road, and one exit/entrance going through the middle of the roundabout (I think that's 8 in total). It's also not uncommon to have a roundabout with a pub in the middle of it, despite that seeming to be a very bad idea.

I’m impressed. Dude got his city to 211,000 with 76% traffic flow. Of course that was with easy mode. Some people can’t use mods tho like me, I game on PlayStation. So I’m forced to use road hierarchy and lane mathematics much more than I’d probably need to since I can’t just go and select which lane I want cars to merge in to. The two lane highway from the Mass Transit dlc tho has been my saving grace. I cannot tell you how many inner city highway interchanges have saved my butt. For instance if someone was playing on PC and saw that their 4 way arterial road intersection was backing up traffic, would either use a roundabout or change up the lanes so traffic turned and flowed more smoothly instead of clashing with one another while turning. I unfortunately don’t have that luxury lol

Thanks for getting back to some Fix Your City videos! These are why I first started watching your channel. There's something very satisfying about watching chaos being redirected.

Oh, City fixes, I love these.

24:39 - that roundabout intersection needs to just bloody go. They already have that hugely overbuilt spaghetti junction that can handle every bit of the traffic that's being thrown at it and would *obviously* serve everything the roundabout junction serves, but everything on the highway is all getting jammed up because the AI thinks that some of the cars would have a shorter route on the roundabout half of the intersection. Get rid of the roundabout one entirely and let the city infrastructure handle the traffic that desperately needs to get to wherever the roundabout leads. If it's *really* that important to have both of those parallel collector/arterial-wannabe roads connected to the highway, then get rid of both the spaghetti junction AND the roundabout junction and build it all into one huge metropolitan intersection. Two lanes in either direction that just cut past everything. Two lanes in either direction that split off and run parallel, and service the two interchanges, and then rejoin the fly-past lanes on either end. The two intersections can never, ever, be made to work as one. Get rid of one, or make them both into one. There's nothing else that can be done here.

@EbuCallinav

Жыл бұрын

The roundabout is one of the only connections in that area, on and off the highway, and the Spaghetti connects two highways together, so they are both serving completely different tasks. I think the simplest solution is to merge those two spaghetti on ramps together and then connect them further back, that way there is more space between them. And maybe even some smaller quick on or off ramps from the other highway into that area, so as to reduce the amount of cars needing to change highways just to use that one roundabout off ramp.

Great fix Biffa. Love watching these. No need to count all the Metro lines. It says the total lines in the bottom left of the window.

I know they take more time to create and edit, but the fix your city episodes are my favorite ♥️

When interchanges are too close together, you have to separate the on-ramp from the off-ramp by putting one atop the other via a bridge/tunnel. Then make a ramp connecting the on-ramp before the grade separation to the off-ramp after the separation, to handle the few vehicles that want to exit immediately after entering.That eliminates the conflicts between the two streams of traffic.

This was incredible to watch, absolutely had me interested from start to finish

I think it would be cool to have a timer in the corner of the video of how long you have had control of the city. So when everything was said and done at the end did you have it for only 4 hours? or you let it run making tweaks over the course of 14 hours. would be a cool stat I feel like if possible.

I do like that playing on hard mode actually kind of forces your city to look better and be more realistic; whether it's about traffic or parking.

Hahaha "i got a sneaky feeling that you're Dutch" :D Those line names are funny. 'Trein pijn' literaly translates as 'train pain'. The struggle was real.

I love these city fixing videos, I'm watching them in between the various other series you've previously done during my nighttime snack. TeaHiti Islands and your Parklife city could've definitely used many of these fixes!

Glad to see "Fix your city" episode again...

Industrial area inside a roundabout? Twitch, twitch. Epic fix, mate. Masterclass.

Oh I missed these... LOVE 'EM. Awesome fix. You can clearly tell when ppl have these "Vanilla Cities" by the types of Roads they are forced to mis-match to handle traffic. The basic game added a lot since 2017, but I remember having to use 2 way non-highways as the end-piece of highway ramps for the left/right turns and stuff. Everything new I build these days is made to perfection (barring growing pains) and there's seldom chaos on the roads anymore. Maybe I should find clogged cities on the workshop and have fun with them too ! Thanks for the vid.

I know these videos prob take ages to make so i understand they don't happen too often, but I really missed the traffic fixes. they are sooo satisfying to watch

I love the traffic fix videos. That's how I started watching Biffa vids and now I'm hooked on his city builds aswell. Always looking forward to your content! Always enjoyable

Can we download the pre-fix save game file from somewhere? Good to see a new entry in the series!

i definitely feel for players who are struggling with their traffic management. traffic management can be quite tricky in this game if you don't fully know how the cars work, and it really requires a lot of trial-and-error and picking through your whole network with a fine comb. these series are great because they teach you some of the basic behaviour of car AI, and learning how to remove redundancies and to make sure your cars are actually able to get to where they want to go. not to mention how, with good use of public transport and walkability, you can eliminate a huge chunk of residential traffic out of your roads. it's definitely the industrial traffic that really bottlenecks your whole infrastructure, once you figure out how to deal with that then the rest of the traffic is a lot easier.

AHHHHHHH FIX YOUR CITY IS BACK!! I’ve never been so excited over a you tube video before!!!!!

Traffic got better once all of the buildings were abandoned. Silver linings. Swings & Roundabouts.

Biffa, based on the names of metro lines of cities you have fixed over the years, you have helped German, Brazilian (or Portuguese), French, Finnish and, per this video, Dutch city builders. I'll have to binge watch your city fix playlist again to see who else you have helped.

Ah the traffic fix videos. Biffa making me feel all nostalgic 🥰

I missed these so much!

I love your other videos Biffa, but Fix Your City episodes are my very favorite. And what a fix this one was!

34:37 the metro emptied that station and had 304/300 passengers... seems legit xD wow so about 10 seconds later you noticed the same thing on different trains xD

I would love for Biffa to do RCE’s city, but take it seriously and deadpan the whole time.

It's quite mind boggling how just rearranging the traffic management can increase profit, fix service issues and grow your population. Then again I remember IRL gridlocks and just how much time is wasted commuting. Pretty darn accurate lol

10:25 I feel figuring out the "spaghetti" junctions and roads should be figured out first to see which ones can be eliminated first

Some of these interchanges make my head spin. It's like a big ball of yarn made out of concrete.

12:16 that's probably due to terraforming. The author expanded the land on that island over the pre drawn ship path. It's a limitation of the game; shipping paths don't get redrawn when you change the waterways, and you can't change them without mods.

What a lovely city & I will watch traffic fixes all day long!

Aaahhh... Spagetti! Didn't realize how much I missed watching you fix spagetti. TY for this treat.

My best series is back again.. Thanks

I love this city it's like an urban jungle that you think would be deserted and destroyed!

I think I would remove all highways and roundabouts and create them again.

never realised how underrated of a mod "bulldoze it" is untill i saw this video.

I'm seeing a lot of "oh, this traffic route isn't getting to this spot because of this jammed interchange, let's throw in a slip lane..." which reminds me of the greater Los Angeles area. They're actually updating the highway in my area so we're not using dangerous full cloverleaf interchanges, so there's some progress.

Good job on showing how to not overuse the lane tool. I see a lot of people funelling traffic not letting vehicles change lanes

Biffa, seriously, we need your expertise in real life. Please come to all the big cities, where politicians are like "one more lane will fix it" and fix the traffic! It is always so entertaining to watch you take on these completely gridlocked cities and flipping them around.

Great to see this series back
