[Question] new roads

*Arturis*

Well-Known Member
I have another question about two lane roads. Do both squares have to touch a building requiring two lanes, or can just one square of a two lane road butt up against a corner? Sort of like this:
....._____
.....|..... |
___|..... |
|..... |---
|..... |
------

I can't seem to find anything that explains the rules about two lane roads.
Yes you can just have a building touch one side of the 2 lanes road for it to work.
As you see in this screenshot, both Casino and Musical Festival touch the 2 lanes road on one corner: http://prntscr.com/559dq0

once you start building 2 lane roads, where is the best place for the town hal?
upper right? upper center? somewhere in the center of town?
Your Town Hall can never be Motivated nor Polished so it should NOT be visible on your initial loading screen, as that space if far more valuable for buildings that need to be visited. So your GBs and Town Hall should be on the edges of your city, preferably in a corner.

Regarding 2-lane roads, AVOID centering them in an expansion sector. If they're always in the corner of an expansion sector then they'll line up at the edges of your city, and you won't run the risk of having two separate roadway networks that you can't interconnect.

As long as it touch's the building with 1 square its fine.

Thanks Bruic.

Thanks LacLongQuan. I'm not sure about the image capture I can see a building in the upper right corner that appears to be only touching the road with one square in the corner, but most of the building is cut off in the picture so I can't see if any of the other sides touch a two lane road. I also can't see if a broken link is jumping up and down above it, but I'll trust you that one isn't. Thanks for your reply.

I am building a new 2 lane road to connect up to another existing 2 lane. I have the right amount of spaces but it wont connect to the existing road. what am I missing?

The big squares need to line up... so the 2x2 blocks in the first road have to be aligned with the 2x2 blocks in the new road.
