Description
This map is not intended to be the slightest bit "realistic". I wanted a map that I could build a huge city on that would be super efficient, so I spent about a week creating, play testing, and tweaking this map.


12 lane highway grid, all fully connected with a intertwined rail system.

I'm assuming you can use any theme or LUT you want with this map, so the ones I have listed in the required section are just if you want the map to look like mine.

There are no open ends on the grid. The best way to connect into it is with a six lane road right where the off ramps meet on the roundabout, then use Traffic Manager Mod to remove traffic lights.

I've attached a couple of screenshots above showing where to connect to it.


There are no resources on the main 25 tiles because I wanted all my industry to be on the outside islands, but you can use Extra Landscaping Tools mod to add or remove resources in game to your liking:

81 Tiles mod not absolutely required, but very highly recommended:

Link to my custom "Crossbow" Highway/Rail interchange that I made for this map:

If you like the map, please give it a thumbs up!

Tips are always appreciated!

I love this map, although it's unrealistic...But I have a request. Could you please redo this map with a little less highways and with the railway and highways on a more realistic level. Like on the ground and flyovers on the intersections ? I tried it myself but when I do that everything lies very strange and not straight at all.

Thanks man !

I do like the layout, the grids with the river running through and the location of the resources give quite a few options without having to much polution in the city itself. Space to build the city seems bit limited but also seems to be a decent challenge. Will give it a good go and see where it ends, should be able to stuff enough people in.

@Cheesygrinballoon Yeah, I think on a map like this, that isn't really trying to be realistic in any way, that even if I did put the resources in the regular buyable squares, there would be a lot of people that wouldn't like where I put them anyway, so I just put them where I wanted them. Funny thing is, once I started building a city on this map, I ended up moving them myself, haha.

oh thanks :) (i said that for the people who didn't have the mod, i do have it, but i am also a guy for playability)

@Cheesygrinballoon As I stated in the description, you can use the Extra Landscaping Tools mod to move the resources anywhere you'd like. This map was primarily made for those using the 81 tiles mod.

move the resources into the buyable squares
