No need to explain this one either :P

This is my most recent one.


And my very first RHW interchange for the heck of it (this was in 2010 so don't nitpick :P)

Nice, but like I said at SM how come you can't go from travelling down to travelling right? :P
Ad your first RHW interchange is better than mine. It was a diamond.

:P

As I said on SM a down to right ramp would be very difficult because of the wide radius turns and the bridge slope for the overpass :P
Besides the fact that it's a very small and short highway to begin with and there's a nearby corridor that takes you where you need to go anyway :P

Okay, I guess that's acceptable. :P I do really like the smoothness of the interchange, though. I cringe when I catch myself not using smooth curves now. :P

Wow, that's cool Durfsurn! I like the water ponds, and the way the avenue bisects the interchange.

Nice one. Last time I tried to make an interchange like this, I made the interior ramps flyover the wrong way. D'oh! XD

One down side to trees is you lose parts of the interchange as seen in this interchange (never plant those tall trees and leave the simulator on Cheetah)



and with DRAWPATHS on:

I remember the first time I planted those... didn't go well. Couldn't see almost my entire city. They look great when small, not so much when tall. :P
