    YT suggested this video and I clicked on it not realizing that you are building MONCTON! I live near Petitcodiac and work in Moncton. I have watched several of your videos before, one of the best channels for Cities Skylines, and had no idea that you are local. I have not played Cities Skylines yet, but use to play SimCity 2000, 3000, and 4. I love watching YT videos of Cities Skylines. As someone with Autism/ADHD, I love maps, and fixing things. I have studied the map and layout of Moncton many times, thinking of ways it could be fixed. I would love to share my ideas with you. What is the best way to communicate with you in this regard?

    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.

  • @ShayminLover492
    @ShayminLover492 2 дні тому +27

    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.

    • @Aranore
      @Aranore День тому

      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.

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
    @Fischbob День тому

    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!

    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.

    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.

  • @HarbourmasterJay
    @HarbourmasterJay 9 годин тому

    I can see two issues arising later because you implemented the whole road grid already, which might be worth adressing now or at least keeping an eye on as the city progresses:
    The first one is Road Maintenance, your whole grid will start to deteriorate over time and it will require a massive fleet of maintence vehicles to repair them. This could potentially cripple your traffic in the long run as accidents will be more common as well as irrational lane changes of vehicles.
    The other issue is Land Value, as that might start to rise even without you zoning or building anything there for a while in some districts as it seeps in from other districts. That might result in companies and households having a hard time affording the rent once you actually start building there in a couple of in game years.
    One thing you could try to somewhat negate those issues is to disconnect some parts and districts of city grid you dont intend to fill in the immediate future from the road grid you are actively working on by deleting a small road road segment between those. that way, no land value can move into those grids and no dummy or through-traffic will deteriorate those roads. And your other city service wont waste service range and coverage on those empty grids and focus on the grid that is actually populated.
