The interchange most notable for punching above its weight are the continuous flow intersection (2:40). At grade, relatively small footprint, and it beats many of the much larger, more expensive interchanges. Diverging Diamond (3:20) also gets a ton of benefit from just a single overpass/underpass.
cloverleaf is basically what most intersections have, so its not that bad you can just use an exit go on a side road to the cloverleaf and get the on ramp to your route
My government trying to decide which intersection to put into my busy city: “okay but what if we put a Standard Roundabout (no mods) there?” Traffic flow: -4
Funny enough, in the real world it does not happen. Just drive another round or three. Either your exit is free eventually, or you take a different route using another exit. The game just can not afford anything close to that level of pathing with that many cars.
Funny thing: when the cloverleaf was introduced in the US and the first one was built in New Jersey it made the cover of Engineering News Record...pushing the Hoover Dam to the back pages...
Speaking of roundabouts, I'm confused with the ones presented in the video. I live and passed my license exam in Germany and here your standard roundabout is the "drivers in the roundabout go first before the one that are about to enter it" kind of situation. You'll also have the triangle standing on its pointy end road sign in front of these. The "right before left" (thus cars entering the roundabout before the ones already in it) do exist, as far as i know, but they're extremely rare. What kind of insane country does use these insane "the ones who enter before the ones already in there" kind of version?
There's a real one in Maryland northeast of Baltimore. It's the I-95/I-695 interchange. Two four-lane highways and designed to handle a parking lot twice a day for three hours at a time
None of the fancy ones late in the video allow turning in the opposite direction... The cloverleaf and roundabouts work, though. But of course, the advanced intersection designs that allow almost unimpeded road changes at high flow rates can also be augmented with loops for turning. 😎
@@EliasHasle the stack interchange is basically a spread.out version of the custom cloverleaf. Which are the simplest principle, and when done correctly, clearly offense best value/efficiency.
@@ZeldaIsMyLove No. The Cloverleaf has a great problem with the weaving thing. All the other interchanges after the Cloverleaf are much better for this reason
In most cases the human drivers slow down and pay extra attention, following the lines and signs. So amusingly making it safer, but not in the way intended
Me watching at 4 in the afternoon..... Not good video.... 1 - Before the round abouts I seen multiple cops and cars go through trucks. 2 - Round about #1 isn't moving 3 - Round about 2 & I believe 3 were both right hand flow only! ....

luckily these more complicated intersections are unbelievably expensive so they do a good job of maintaining them and making sure they're well marked. so even if you don't plan properly and enter in the wrong lane, you'll be directed very clearly, for the most part, where to go beyond that point.

That's exactly what I'm thinking too. This can only work with autonomous vehicles, as it's just too complex to work for a standard human. Plus the big ones seem terribly pedestrian unfriendly.
What’s difficult is different for every person, many people would simply see this for the first time and start panicking about which way to go, and when to yield and such. Trust me, there are plenty of people out there who can’t hardly handle a normal roundabout without getting thoroughly confused
FYI if you want to reduce inner city traffic, Stockholm solved that problem: inner city car travel tolls. Also, if you want public transport to be safer, maybe having an anonymous Air Marshal type roll on random buses would greatly help
I don't know why, but when I return home at the end of my tiring, sad and hectic routine, I watch this video, and as soon as I watch this video, I feel so relaxed and peaceful. that my sadness and fatigue disappear

Of course no one went direct left at the roundabout these are AI drivers not idiots that decide to back up because they missed a turn or try to overtake a semi while its passing them. SMH

And they've made traffic AI a whole lot better! Can't wait to create some of the most useless intersections to cause countless congestions!
The more complicated ones actually would very rarely have accidents. If you pay close attention you'll see a lot of cars going through each other in the normal intersections, but never in the complicated ones. This is because there is almost no way to crash in those more complicated ones.
I think Traffic Manager has an option to have bad / road raging drivers. But I don't know if anyone crashes. I had a big truck and van get picked up by a tornado and thrown. They didn't seem to want to move after that.
@@kingacrisius there are drivers that crashed on a straight road. don't say that there are any kind of intersections with "no way to crash". there will be always at least one person that found drivers license in a pack of chips who will prove you wrong.
@@szymonsadlo I think the comment was more about cars that crash from turning and such, not the car crashes that happen while going in the same direction. But I yea you are right there is always that one person
4:55 Vehicle entering left-bound from the up-bound ramp, small white car, cuts 3 lanes of traffic to get into the left-most lane, then within a second cuts back to the right-most lane. I wish this game didn't simulate life so darn well.
It’s not hard bc you would choose a lane before getting into it then just follow your path, it is designed to be easier than a roundabout to pass through to improve flow
That's why we don't have to built crowded cities. That's gives us anxiety. The some of these roads are bigger than ancient Italy's villages. If we're not built crowded cities, than we don't have these roads anymore.
@@Canervir cities naturally become crowded as more people move into them than people die in them, which has been a net positive since the popularization of soap in the late 1800s
@@basmca1 yo guys, that turbine is simple.. just look, you have two exits - first one goes right, next goes left ;o easier than some roundabouts in England
It’s not that hard if you just focus on the lower right lane and imagine yourself as a car there. You would ignore the big road to your furthest left because that’s for cars coming into your neighboring lane through one of their three fork routes . You focus on the 3-way fork to the right. The left one takes you to the left lane provided you don’t suddenly 90* turn into a different lane’s overlapping fork. The middle one takes you to the opposite lane provided the same reasoning. The right one is a slip lane, enough said.
@@IFacePalmParadoxI Looking at it from above it looks like mental rape but if it were first person it would go something like this: - Sign says approaching 2 turnoffs - Keep Right - Exit A goes Right - Exit B goes Left (even though it exits to the right, it looks around over the road) - If you miss your Exit you're screwed. Have A Nice Day!
Yeah when cars can just drive over each other it must mean some can fly and if thats the case. BACK TO THE FUTURE BABY. " where we're going we dont need roads"
It would've been amazing if you would've added an average budget-meter for every design and a second meter that shows the efficiency of the design in terms of traffic/cost ratio.
@@billycasper3351 It would be good to see it on an actual simulator like city engine and have a cost analysis. Though then you may as well just get a job as a city planner.

@@jesselindsey9760 To note, those planners have more power than younger planners. They lead projects and have greater ties to political leaders. These people making a mistake is not a personal 'opsie'. There decisions can literally destroy and cut communities in half. This stuff is not to be taken lightly in that kind of context; otherwise the same mistakes will continue while, for example, death and serious injuries continues to stay high. Tho, fortunately, we don't live in the 70's anymore. When knowledge was limited to obscure cabinets in a random department somewhere in the city; and when many planners bought 'interesting' (*cough* John Foster) books from local bookshops, because of lack of access to information, that prolonged bad practices. Here's a parody lol: "See! I knew it all along! We only have one bookstore in the town, but look! I found this amazing book written by some guy, the only book on the store mind you, but it looks like I have been right all along! How convenient!

Of course no one went direct left at the roundabout these are AI drivers not idiots that decide to back up because they missed a turn or try to overtake a semi while its passing them. SMH

EDIT (10/09/2023): CITIES SKYLINES 2 COMING SOON BABY. And they've made traffic AI a whole lot better! Can't wait to create some of the most useless intersections to cause countless congestions!
The more complicated ones actually would very rarely have accidents. If you pay close attention you'll see a lot of cars going through each other in the normal intersections, but never in the complicated ones. This is because there is almost no way to crash in those more complicated ones.
I think Traffic Manager has an option to have bad / road raging drivers. But I don't know if anyone crashes. I had a big truck and van get picked up by a tornado and thrown. They didn't seem to want to move after that.
@@kingacrisius there are drivers that crashed on a straight road. don't say that there are any kind of intersections with "no way to crash". there will be always at least one person that found drivers license in a pack of chips who will prove you wrong.

Thanks to the camera man, staying in a jetpack and counting numbers of cars
The thought of being in the wrong lane on some of these is giving me anxiety
That's why we don't have to built crowded cities. That's gives us anxiety.
The some of these roads are bigger than ancient Italy's villages.

@@basmca1 yo guys, that turbine is simple.. just look, you have two exits - first one goes right, next goes left ;o easier than some roundabouts in England
"Easier than some roundabouts in england"
Yeah that's because you have double roundabout monstrosities.
if it would be like that, the english poulation would die from roundabouts
Traffic Flow in a turbo roundabout would be 0, because no one would be able to figure out which way he's supposed to take.
What a goddamn nightmare
It’s not that hard if you just focus on the lower right lane and imagine yourself as a car there. You would ignore the big road to your furthest left because that’s for cars coming into your neighboring lane through one of their three fork routes . You focus on the 3-way fork to the right. The left one takes you to the left lane provided you don’t suddenly 90* turn into a different lane’s overlapping fork. The middle one takes you to the opposite lane provided the same reasoning. The right one is a slip lane, enough said.
@@IFacePalmParadoxI my ass

Looking at it from above it looks like mental rape but if it were first person it would go something like this:
- Sign says approaching 2 turnoffs
- Keep Right
- Exit A goes Right
- Exit B goes Left (even though it exits to the right, it looks around over the road)
- If you miss your Exit you're screwed.

Fax lmao. Traffic flow might be high but that thing is confusing af 😂
I feel like the risk of accidents is 100x greater in one of these, since you’re being bombarded on all sides by new information and vehicles. “They came out of nowhere” is true when there’s 6 exchanges of vehicles in your 100m of travelling.
You wouldn’t even understand the interchange in the air or on the ground
Now let's compare how many square meters of asphalt that relates to per car per minute to evaluate the cost effectivness of the intersection.
I think DDI wins
DDI is neat but the basic stoplight might beat it, just because it's so small.
You have way less income when traffic is slow (less happiness, less income from commercial), so you'll gain it back.
Hopefully remembering to include the statistical amount of accidents for each one and the corresponding prices for that

HaiLsKuNkY - I was about to mention the magic roundabout but you beat me to it. I used to live near Swindon and quite a few of my friends had to go over it during their driving test.
there was a study on the Magic Roundabout, and it actually DECREASES accidents, because the driver is forced to be more careful.
@@Ins4n1ty_ the problem with this on the other hand is that it isnt effective then.
fast + safe is effective.
not according to the study, no. The study actually defends that the Magic Roundabout should be used more often in other places.

I haven't seen any of those comments. They must have long since been low voted into oblivion. Everyone in the comments section one year in the future seems to completely get it.

@@jesselindsey9760 To note, those planners have more power than younger planners. They lead projects and have greater ties to political leaders. These people making a mistake is not a personal 'opsie'. There decisions can literally destroy and cut communities in half.
This stuff is not to be taken lightly in that kind of context; otherwise the same mistakes will continue while, for example, death and serious injuries continues to stay high.
Tho, fortunately, we don't live in the 70's anymore. When knowledge was limited to obscure cabinets in a random department somewhere in the city; and when many planners bought 'interesting' (*cough* John Foster) books from local bookshops, because of lack of access to information, that prolonged bad practices.
Here's a parody lol: "See! I knew it all along! We only have one bookstore in the town, but look! I found this amazing book written by some guy, the only book on the store mind you, but it looks like I have been right all along! How convenient! It was never me, it's just that people have to have perfect reflexes! I bloody knew it! I don't have to retrain, now, yay!"
