You could just build an highway on the other side of the river, so cars don't have to drive through the city

If you look at a map of Roseville, MI, there's a great example of the service drive continuing on as a normal road as the interstate itself ends. 42.497039251081304, -82.91304174717402

Also, it doesn't take long looking at that area to notice it's grid city, but I really like it because you have bigger roads in a 1x1(ish) mile grid, with smaller roads in between. Actually, one thing I'd love to see how CS2 deals with is the Michigan Left. On most of the main roads on those grids, you can't turn left, you either have to go right and do a U-turn, or go past the road you want to turn on, do a U-turn, then turn right.

I have a question to combine two of your favorite things. How do you handle drainage on a bridge? Are there special considerations to prevent a waterfall from running off one side of the bridge down onto the poor people below?

Hey Matt, you talking about these highway access roads made me think of something similar in Poland. Basically along some stretches of our main highways A1 and/or A2 (Funfact with Bart: A standing for autostrada which means highway in Polish and Romanian and comes from German autostrasse) we have some parallel roads which were main roads before highway construction like for example the stretch from about (52°47'38.5"N 18°50'12.9"E) north bound where A1 is parallel to 91st state road, which was there beforehand and was used (to travel to the seaside) primarily before construction of A1 and can be used to redirect traffic in case of maintenance and has some slip roads like at (52°48'20.9"N 18°49'03.4"E) which has a sign with no traffic allowed except for road maintenance and emergency services. (another not so fun fact with Bart, my family thinks we saw some ambulance guys have some adult fun with a lady on the 91st road at this location 52°53'08.6"N 18°44'09.9"E) Also if it isn't too much to ask, Matt what would you say at comparing signage of UK vs other countries like Poland for example? (just wanna know what differences/ how many similarities there are)

RIP this city after he patched

Another Texas viewer here. Service/frontage/access roads are an intermediary between up to 85mph highways and slower surface streets, but they lead to beautiful stack interchanges like the High 5 Interchange in Dallas (and the legendary six-level stack interchange).

Oh my god. A) Watching Matt poke through Austin on Google maps is a weird "when worlds collide" moment, as he managed to to pick spots I'm very familiar with and B) Him saying "surely you don't need all of those lanes" has me cackling. He has ZERO idea how bad 35 gets. Also, the access roads (also called frontage roads) are amazing for getting in and out of traffic jams. You can just hop on and off them to skip over chunks of backed-up traffic on the main highway. It's great. While they're technically 45 mph roads, pretty much everyone is doing at least 60 mph, if not more. And you need to be doing 80 mph on I-35 otherwise you're part of the problem. Never thought about how absurdly high the elevated portion of 35 is though - maybe it's to allow for transport of large vehicles? Lots of machinery/heavy equipment, industrial vehicles go through 35, like wind farm blades. Maybe they need the clearance.

If you like lanes and lanes of traffic, you should check out the Katy Expressway (I10) between Houston and Katy Texas.

Brody Chambers

I live in Katy Texas and the little roads on the side are usually called “Access Roads” they are around 50-55mph on average and they basically and they basically give you quick and easy access to the rest of a city without needing to get into the freeway.

I’m loving this series way more than I ever expected to. Fully invested in seeing the Mattropolis come to life. I’m thinking it might be cool to see little satellite towns like for example near your industrial zone with a school house, and small wild West style commercial strip.

Peter Schmalfeldt

Ooh, that's a great question. I've wondered this too.

RobynWantsToGoToSpace

We have access roads here NL Canada, but they are just a dirt road along the side of the highway for maintenance

Chugging my way through so a bit late in the day. There are local access roads in Cambridgeshire, the A1307 runs parallel to the new A14 just by Cambridge, partly to cut down on the junction count, but also because there's pseudo-motorway restrictions on the A14 itself. The A428 also has some, and the new A428 will have them too Likewise, the A1 (M) between Alconbury & Peterborough has a local access road (B1043) for non-motorway traffic and access to smaller roads. There's actually a few on the A1 to be fair, as the new stretch between Scotch Corner and Wetherby has roads that run parallel to it. Not sure it's that common a thing in the UK, but when a road is replaced by a dual carriageway, or an existing A road is treated like a motorway, access roads are built, or the old roads are maintained as access roads.

Traffic through that section of I-35 in Austin is absolutely atrocious. The road on road part you were looking at is two levels of Interstate 35. It basically splits traffic between those who need to exit in the city, and those who are driving through.
