Interchanges Needed

[unmerged(387152)]

Playing the new awesome map of St.Petersburg. Thought I would make a dominant bus network connecting with an underground Network. I'm struggling to keep up with supply and demand, even with the Mods. I
have massive bottleneck issues, it's frustrating. I've linked a shopping centre with a double underground station and bus networks. I have re-routed some of the bus runs, but my Cims seem to love the bus connections, which means i need more buses hence more bottlenecks appearing.

A bus interchange with at least 4-6 stops and even a 6 track subway station would be awesome as well, Maybe in Cims 2?

Thoughts????

When I build huge transfer points like this, I almost always get into trouble. But I do like watching these transfer points.

Huge hubs are not very effective in any map. I build small, local hubs around metro stations.

On a side note, if there was a way to space out the metro and build custom metro stations that would allow you to filter the passengers underground to different exits of the station or other separate platforms, it would maybe be doable.

What I mean with "custom metro station" is 1/2/3/4 track stations either island or regular style. Also to build an island station that two different metro lines could use(same direction or opposite direction. It would go a long way and make good flexibility.

I did it already but still it doesn't work. Do you have any suggestions there that will work for me? If yes, let me know then Thank you!

There is a 4 track station available here (there is also a DLC one for crossing stations). Cross platform interchange is possible, but lines either interconnect or have opposite directions...

I know, but the problem is that you can't build single track tunnels. You need to build double tunnels which will delay traffic. If you could build single track tunnels and decide the direction of the tracks on the station, I think it would be a step in the right direction.

That's what I'm talking about, only the problem with this solution in CiM today is that it will make the situation worse. If you could separate the tunnels 100% it would be perfect.

It can, but like I said, opposite directions get the cross-platform interchange.

What du you mean with: "it can"?
