This looks savege

beautiful

Hey Author, now that merging lanes are a thing, will you ever do redesigns of all your great interchanges, coupled with merging lanes?

AMAZING

only one qualm, and that is that the main road (a38m) should be highway up until the end of the junction where the last exit/entrace is, where it turns into the non-highway a5127.

This one needs a version 2. The main highway that bends through it is bent, seriously bent. I loved the function and the look, but I'm not putting something like this in my city, and I'm not going to use my time fixing it.

You weren't wrong about upgradability. I had to start from scratch after I had a go with it. lol

Man, you are a genius!
Wonderfull! Thanks!

Oddly, we have a Spaghetti Junction just outside of the Atlanta area.

tou must have so much spear time on you hand`s & brilleant work by this man [or woman]

Thank you so much for this. when it was first built my father got so lost. used it every day for many years. I agree with the low housing values.

cool. i like these super compicated intersections that just blow ur mind. and after looking at all the others holy shit i cant believe mankind has so many variations. like wtf so thanks for helpin make some cool ones cause this shit is over my head and i played every city builder so far.

Here are the co-ordinates of the real-life junction in Google Maps, for those asking for it. https://www.google.com/maps/place/52%C2%B030%2738.7%22N+1%C2%B051%2752.4%22W

Reminds me of this nightmare in Seattle: https://www.google.com/maps/@47.5930569,-122.3206756,16z

I call this What Happens If You Drink Too Many Times While Designing.

I've downloaded a few interchanges assets but apparently I cannot place them on the map. What should I do?

@mrglide - couldnt have said it better myself! Looks great though!

Bostin'!
I do have a slight gripe with it though...you missed out the cones and ever present roadworks on the M6 bit; oh, and the eternal scaffolding underneath the road decks :) :)

@timboh: that's a qquestion I can't rightly answer. It's supposed to be the I-70 - I-25 interchange, but all the aerial shots I've seen claiming to be it are actually part of that bigger cluster to the north.

All I know is that it's legendary for being a complete cluster as far as traffic management is concerned, at least pre-redesign.

Sexy this. <3

@aiyel: Any chance you could post the coordinates for it (Google Maps, Open Street Map etc.)? The three interchanges set up like a triangle is directly north of what Wikipedia states is the Denver Mousetrap, the interchange between I-70 and I-25. Just want to be completely sure which one you're referring to ;)

Unfortunately, I can't find but the one aerial shot of the old version. The new version is actually three interchanges in a triangle formation, and is still a bear to navigate, but without the hairpin turns that caused the torpedo incident in the '80s that prompted the redesign.

It's a classic example of lack of proper prior planning, as the highways grew rapidly and a bunch of improvised fixes were thrown on to accomodate the increased traffic. In other words, exactly how the average Cities player manages their interchanges.

@aiyel: I've actually never seen such a design before! While from a road planner's point of view it looks like a suicide interchange, it would be really fun to recreate this in Cities Skylines! It's a pity I haven't been able to find any good photos of it, since I'm still unsure how I shall make the ramp layout to match the real-life equivilant.

Awesome! Any chance of you recreating the old Denver Mousetrap?

Great job !

This is great!

This is spot on! Great work!

I actually live not too far from this thing - good job; if I was going to be really unkind though I'd point out you missed the railway line out :P

great

hey timboh , I really like a couple of your junctions, and I need a good 3-way. but this is nowhere near compact. Got a somewhat compact 3way you could recommend?

I have drove through this, its not too bad

nice done :)

What am I supposed to do with the four low density roads that come from underneath?

Do you want to kill people? Because that's how you kill people :D

Just in case you miss the first exit. And the second. And third.

Gah! The only interchange that's worse than anything in Asheville!

Круто! :)

норм

This interchange is so confusing to make it work to it´s full potential, and it takes alot of space.
However when you figure out how it work, and combine it with some clever roads along with a roundabout intersection, this is the best intersection yet to connect cities to the highway, this have solved alot of trafic problems for me :), The main key is NOT to connect the 2 outgoing roads, let them go to your desired destination without connecting them... i just wished i had this from the very begining!,,good job

I like this interchange its pretty nice too connect two districts over a highway.

@Cerberus This is exactly what it is, a replica of the junction at Birmingham

@spudcosmic: All hail the Flying Spaghetti Junction! May you forever drive along his noodly appendages! ;)

Finally, a junction created to honor our noodly overlord.

Haha, I Love it! I make some CRAZY Interchanges in my Cities because A. Its fun! Its Challenging! And how anyone couldnt love making them is crazy to me! B. I loved making Interchanges in Sim City' But never truly knew how much I loved the art of it and how much I truly love and respect how designers of them, actually get them to work efficiently. It amazed me since I was a kid, and saw crazy Interchanges like ive never seen in L.A.! Stuck Since... LoL. BTW, Great job and lvoe your work! Thank you lots!

Was just building one of these myself, actually i'm really digging the aesthetics of yours!
