would it be possible to add auxiliary lanes to motorways around their exits and entrances ?
so, for example, on a motorway with 3 lanes in one direction - some distance before an exit, it would be good to be able to add an auxiliary deceleration lane that exiting traffic could switch into - this lane would then later diverge from the motorway forming the exit road/ramp. This would mean exiting traffic would not slow down through traffic around exits.
A similar deal with acceleration lanes around entrances - traffic entering the motorway would use the acceleration lane to accelerate before merging into the rest of the traffic.
Turning lanes would also be good to have for busy main roads - which would also work best if it were possible to add additional lanes around the intersections.
** also does anyone know if any city building games currently allow you to do this ? I know the simcity 4 NAM mod allowed turning lanes on avenues.. but they were very clunky to use. and no ability to add auxiliary lanes (that Im aware of..). Still pretty cool though.
thanks !
