Description
Perfect Rest Area and Hwy turn around by Populous

This is an actually working rest area that actually works amazingly well. A good deal of time went into determining the exact distance to the highway the roads needed to be, layout, design and testing.

I strongly suggest this Rest area asset as it was used in testing; adds rest area; parking to the rest area; Cims will enter and exit both restrooms and Cim markers are set to make this an active rest area: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=603814410


Features:
- Efficient on/off ramps
- Optimized roads: Smooth running traffic and care in road distance to assure areas will be used
- Zone-able areas (if you choose)
- Highway Rest Area by Populous, fits and works perfectly
- Any park 4 deep will work
- Highway turn abounds supporting both lanes without traffic congestion or interfering with rest area
- You ask will this support a small tourist city like Reno (USA)... Yes, yes it will.

CoolantCorrie, my new best friend! You made me laugh, feel happy and are the kind of person who modders hope they are building for. Thank you for absolutely making every moment invested worth while.

Sorry, forgot to say thanks also for your marvellous modular parks, small and large. The rest rooms are a must for this rest area, and the BBQ.

Handsome, easy to "plug in" to existing roads. At first cims used it to do U-turns, but within, say, half an hour real time vehicles and cims are everywhere, love it. What were they doing before - crossing their legs?! Thanks!

ZenZen, you my friend just absolutely made my day.... it has always been about creating what does not exist... Thank you for making my day, my week, my month.

sanforduno, thank you very much for the kind words and I very happy to hear you enjoy this. Wow, you did a great job on upgrades! Would love to see any additional upgrades :)

What a great intersection!! I use it near every entrance/exit as the hwy goes on/off the map. And of course anywhere along the highway that the tourists need a bathroom break (at your rest area asset), and a burger. Thanks for making it so well.
I pulled back the sound barriers so hwy traffic can easily see cars coming from the ramp onto the hwy, and I still have some fiddling to do with TMPE lane connectors for lane arrow changing and better markings at the ramps, but it works perfectly.
Here's a screenshot of my use of it, as it is right now.
