    Ive been watching you for a while and had no Idea you were from Moncton aswell! I bet the Wheeler /Lewisville intersection will backup instantly in the game aswell
    I have been redesigning intersections in Moncton on my Ipad for a while (im a géographie student at Université de Moncton)

    Having my own project of recreating a city I know well in CS2, surely the preparation time to get to this first video was huge!! I'm glad to see someone else doing it, and to see how you go about things and what it looks like. I love the concept of recreating irl places! Pls keep em coming :D

    One of the most apparent problems? Car dependency. Like many other Canadian cities, Moncton followed the American model of urban planning, that being: only provide for cars and nothing else, while also blasting highways right through the middle, banning the missing middle in the suburbs, and demolishing buildings to make room for parking lots. As a result, the city is now car-dependent, because it's too spread out to walk, it's too dangerous to cycle, and public transit is nearly useless. Fixing the roads alone won't solve it unless you introduce alternatives to driving, such as light rail, bike infrastructure, and intercity rail.
    One of the first problems I see is that the rails downtown run at ground level, resulting in several level crossings. Those shouldn't be there, as they will only cause traffic jams when a train rolls through. As such, it would be wise to either raise the rails onto a bridge or bury them under the road (either as a tunnel or sunken railway). While we're on the subject, there should definitely be a central station somewhere to facilitate intercity rail and act as a central transit hub. In real life, all the rails are owned by the cargo rail companies; passenger rail is merely leasing the lines from the cargo rail companies. As such, we have a backwards system where freight trains get priority over passenger trains.

      Moncton was built on a swamp; sunken rail is impossible. I've envisioned (if I had money to throw at stuff) a circular rail system with stops at the mall, downtown, up town.

      Additionally, that rail crossing at St George street kills a couple of people every year.

    I cannot properly communicate how excited i am to see the fixed version of this. If you're any familiar with strong towns, you might know what a stroad is and its disastrous effects. Moncton seems to be almost entirely dependent on those. Mountain road, st-george street , and elmwood drive are all examples of stroads. I am very excited to see implantation of public transport , despite the mess car-dependent infrastructure has left us with. As a dieppe resident myself, i cannot wait for the finished product.

    I live in Geelong, Australia, which has a very similar vibe as a large town/small city. Greater Geelong has about 250,000 residents and is growing like crazy, but not alot of infrastructure is being built or upgraded.

    This is awesome 🥰 I lived in Freddy most my life but also spent a lot of years in Riverview. I’d love to see more New Brunswick cities. I wanted to do this for Freddy and then see how I could improve the city but I’ve never been able to build the map. I probably could figure out how to do that but the map creating skill set is not one I possess

  • @Fischbob

    I'm just down the highway in Saint John, and am very excited to see you featuring a New Brunswick city for this series! Great work detailing Assomption Place and surroundings, I think you really nailed the overall feel of that block.
    IMO, Moncton is a city with lots of potential, and has the growth momentum to do some interesting things if local leadership and developers have the foresight. In addition to all the infill and densification opportunities Downtown, I'd be interested in seeing you tackle a development scheme for the Vision Lands (between McLaughlin and Mapleton south of the TCH), which has been the subject of some recent long-range planning exercises by the City.
    I look forward to sharing more ideas and discussion as the series progresses!

    Nice, I always wanted to tackle this in Cities Skylines 2. I was one of the original map designers in cites skylines 1 to make a Moncton map (you can see the 2 versions uploaded by Refract3d). I found it surprisingly easy to fix the traffic problems, but it's probably solutions that infrastructure-wise would be pretty costly.

    Good luck with this one. My toughest build was Salem Mass 1:1 scale. It's tallest building is 12 stories. In cs1 the variety of short buildings is slim. I'm guessing you'll find that with this build as well. As a Canadian this is awesome eh. 🍁

    Be aware that the city had a mandate for new midrise developments seeking approval downtown to have commercial ground floor to stop the core area from becoming too residential.
    I'm not on city payroll, fyi, but I'm a contractor and the city staff have told me this, and you can see it in some of the new facilities.

    The city is similar size so it'll take around the same amount of time... but I hope that by the time i get around to doing it, CS2 will have cycling infrastructure added because Limerick is a cycling city

I'm Audevourahn on the mods platform, and created a Moncton map, which I think may be the one you've got there! I would be happy to give you the exact map that lines up with it, if you would like. It will require no further adjustments.
