Show us your...Intersections

[Synthael]

Building cities from scratch can be a boring thing, but after looking some nice intersections, I decided to make one in my style... As a "monsterchange"... (although I think I overdid this one...)

Pinavia XXXL style 



Managed to use almost every RHW-4 and MIS FAR piece there is, was fun building it =) I hope it'll be same fun trying to build city around it on this large tile...

Made this before RHW 5.0 came out.
A freeway multiplex ends and goes east(right) and a regular road is to the left.



And redid this one after RHW 5.0 came out....

A new Airport.. a new Highwaysystem. I think this will be the best airport I've ever build

Nice interchanges, everyone.

I wasn't going to post every other interchange I did here (I made a small dozen today, mostly parclos), but this one struck me as particular:



I guess it's some sort of cloverstack. It's actually based off Ontario's 407/427 interchange.

Yup, looks like a pretty accurate recreation.



Quick fact about it: it was supposed to be a 4-level stack, but was redeigned to be more cost-efficent since there was plenty of land available in the right of way.

Nice job!

Here's my attempt at a Pinavia with some oddly angled RHWs coming in.

Nice Monster-Interchange there 

Here's some sort of "compact partial Whirpool" -Interchange I built

very nice

I posted this in the Highways thread, but I may as well post it in here too.

[Haljackey]

Very nice!

Built another one of these guys... Think I'm getting better at them.


New MAVE-6 expressway intersection.

[GDO29Anagram]

New MAVE-6 expressway intersection.

That's an AVE-6, and it's easy to tell in two ways:
- It's three-tiles in width.
- It has the median.

I created this Mind Dump entry long ago explaining the different types of NWM networks, and how the Maxis networks are organised:

SC4 Road Types vs NAM non-RHW Road Types:
       - SC4 Road Types are as follows: Street, Road, Avenue, and One-Way Road. Nothing special about them; Their name implies everything, at least for OWR...
       - NAM non-RHW Road Types are as follows: Street, SAM, AVE, TLA, MAVE, OWR, and ARD. Street and SAM are in their own little group, so let's skip to the rest.
       - AVE refers to a road network having a concrete (or dirt) median separating the two directions of traffic; Symmetrical AVEs are denoted in even numbers.
       - TLA refers to a road network having a central left turn lane (or suicide lane) in the middle; Symmetrical TLAs are denoted in odd numbers.
       - MAVE refers to a road network with a set of double yellow lines separating the two directions of traffic; Just like AVEs, symmetrical MAVEs are denoted in even numbers. It should also be noted that the network called "Road" is classified as a MAVE-type network: MAVE-2.
       - ARD refers to one special asymmetrical MAVE: The ARD-3; A 2+1 road, if you will. Other asymmetrical MAVEs might be called MAVEs, as opposed to ARDs, though ARD can also be used to describe a highly uncommon 3+1 road (ARD-4?).
       - NMAVE refers to the one-tile version of the MAVE-4. The most lanes one can put on a single SC4 tile without narrowing the lanes is 3, though with lane narrowing, it's possible to raise the bar to 4.

I thought you were always good at them o.o"

Well I think this is pretty strange 



Pretty sweet though!



And This is Highway exit/entrance a made. Common in Texas

[Nanami]

Nice work all!

Here's mine:

Interesting interchanges, everyone

Here is a partial interchange from a suburb to a nearby highway, which brings workers all the way to the downtown core. It is a bit tricky to plan around the tram network used in the area though.

[Haljackey]

Love the directional interchanges!

Huh. Reminds me of the basketweave thing.

Huh. Reminds me of the basketweave thing.

This is the best I could come up with as of RHW 5.0.

An inside B1 exit would make the left example smoother. I don't think you can get them any closer than 3 tiles, though. Two-lane ramps are also currently impossible.

I personally prefer Houstonkid's interchanges between collector/express systems, I just space them more apart to avoid weaving.

In the good ol' state o' Texas, they call them Frontage Roads. sometimes they'll have some businesses along them in a major city. Kind of akin to Service Roads.

I'm waiting for an inside 8S to RHW-4/RHW-6 ramp. Then a true collector-express behemoth will be possible!!! *Evil laugh*

[oczomajster]

My new-old intersection. It is new-old because I rebuilt it and it is now a TOTSO (Turn off to stay on) intersection. I'll show you in my thread soon.

[art128]

I like its design, I might do something like that, good job!
