but no roundabouts, ONLY 4-way intersections are allowed and they MUST have sensors so they can stay green and only turn red when someone approaches.

We need some kind of super long SUV that drives on its own kind of road where people can get on and off at these party zones. The road should be made of metal, because I like heavy metal.
I like your train of thought
In Ontario, Canada, existing bike lanes are being removed because of premier is personally offended by people who live healthier lifestyles than him.
Diabetic '93 Bowser Doug Ford is a shitty person. Who could've guessed? Couldn't let Not Just Bikes give your cities free positive press, huh?
Eventually, EVERYTHING was car lanes
The parking spots and stoops of every croonin' boomer
Lanes.
Lanes in bowling alleys and on Sally's lawn.
So as when we went outside, we became driven on.
Every serious cities skylines player knows this isn't true
And you don't even need to deal with parking!
once we solve traffic by adding more lanes, car companies will start building cars that are 3 lanes wide
CANYONEROOOOO~
Implement right to mobile work for office jobs. Boom, less traffic overnight. But nooo y'all are envious and rather stand in stop n go burning the planet than allow somebody to have homeoffice.
And it will reduce traffic. For about a day. And then that new lane becomes just as clogged as all the previous ones, and a permanent waste of space.
and now the junctions on either end are yet more nightmarish to navigate, too! Have fun waiting at a 4-way intersection with 32 lanes in total
Building more roads to solve your traffic problem is like buying bigger pants to solve your obesity problem.
Reason it doesn't work is everyone will tailgate camp the left lane no matter how many empty lanes are to the right
why shitpost when there is so much important stuff to post
