Description
[OBSOLETE] 5-Lane Avenue with 1-Way-Trolleybus and Median
This version is obsolete and will no longer be updated. You can find the new version here: 5-Lane Avenue with 1-Way Trolleybus Due to a naming conflict in the editor, this network can no longer be updated. This avenue still works, however I recommend using the new version. ►► Note: Before unsubscribing from this article, you should replace your old roads in the savegame with the new version. Otherwise it can happen that savegames break.


Unfortunately, an avenue with one-way trolleybus wires is missing in the game. This 5-lane avenue complements the trolleybus system perfectly. While cars are allowed to use all directions, trolleybuses can only use one direction.

Acknowledgments:
This network uses 3D basic and tunnel models from the NEXT2 Replacement Roads by Cylis and the original Netwerk Extensions Mod. All credits go to the creators of the mod. Without their work, this network would not have rendered tunnels. You are doing a great job. The Network Extensions 2 Mod (called Next2) you find here. The Next2 replacement roads by Cylis you find here.

You do not need to subscribe to the Network Extensions Mod or NEXT2 replacement roads to use this network.

Features:
  • Trolleybuses can use all lanes,
  • 100% Vanilla
  • Parking on the 2-lane side on all segments,
  • Bus and trolleybus stops possible on ground and elevated version
  • Rendered tunnels
  • Upgradable trees
  • Streetlights at intersections so they don't appear too dark (results may vary).

You need (for using)
  • DLC Sunset Harbor (for the trolleybus network)

Motivation for this network
Trolleybuses are seen in the game as a kind of tram. Trolleybuses (mostly) ignore directional arrows. In addition, the buses on the vanilla medium road (4-lanes) can use the outermost lane only. In the game it works quite well. But at crossings it can happen that the power poles on the bus lose contact with the wires. Wires at crossings are stretched straight and the power poles on the bus only have a maximum length. The curve angle also contributes to whether the trolleybus maintains contact with the overhead line.

In reality, trolleybuses behave quite differently: the buses sort themselves into intersections and are (not always) bound to one lane. This avenue picks up on this characteristic.

Tips for using:
(1) Build the roads first and then build lines.
(2) At intersections, the bus should turn from a three-lane side of the road to a two-lane side of the road (right-hand traffic).
(3) Stops should not be placed too close to intersections.
(4) 90° turns where the three-lane side of the road has the longest angle should be avoided.
(5) If nothing works: Use the lane connector tool in the TMPE mod.


If you like my addition, please give me a thumbs up :)

Wiwi, I want want combinate this two versions to like this -

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/?id=2190494085

Stops with no bus buys no a sloved traffic. I have 220 000+ population and 82% Traffic.

P.S. Can you make 4-lane road with bikes/trees and tram (Roads and Vehicles update) with trolleybus?

I can't create such a road because it's too special. In the workshop there is already such a road without bike lanes for the trolleybus (Vanilla+ Roads). With the Traffic Manager, vehicles can be banned from certain lanes. That is the easiest way :)

The reason that the trolleybus only uses the 2-lane direction is that the parking lots are used as stops. This will not block traffic. On the other side (3-lane direction) the bus has to stop on the road. That can block rear traffic.

Could you make this road please:

It's like vanila 3 lane way with the bike lane, but with 2 way trolleybus and one lane with the road sign "No Entry", where only public transport, garbage trucks and city/emergency services can move.

Amazing! Thank you! Could you make please the same thing on three lane segment? Thank you in advance!

Happy new year Wiwi! I will definitely try this out. Is there a chance we can get a similar road with standard six lane arrangement in the future?
