Lakedale (Fix) for Dr_treo

For Dr_treo's original "Fix my city please":

This is a difficult one, as one industry areas is very large, and there were other serious traffic issues in the city. As the work took me quite some time, the population grew from 95,000 to now 126,000. (Even though I didn't zone any new area.)

Apart from reworking roads and TMPE rules, I introduced two more metro lines and two intra-city train lines. Previously, there were only intercity trains from/to the outside, which I disallowed because they are almost empty but clog the network (while literally thousands of persons were waiting for their trains to reach other areas within the city.) I modified the rail network so that both platforms in a train station get used. For eventually servicing intercity traffic, you might consider larger stations with more platforms, or build a separate one.

Traffic is now at 78% with no despawning (TMPE simulation accuracy "High", and Advanced Vehicle AI "enabled" with dynamic lane selection at 60%). A lot of things need further work, though. Traffic will degrade from 78% slowly, mainly because both cargo train terminals get severely overloaded. More terminals are urgently needed; I guess that's also because the city has grown by 31,000 people in the last two days. But that work is now for the creator or the other guys here :-)

Anyone be aware: the fix is based on the original, which contains multiple different road types from Mass Transit DLC and NE2 Replacement, as well as some BIG Urban Road and USRP stuff which might be non-essential..
