  • Something else I can say is scale. If you’re building a realistic scale city, you don’t have a vast highway system. Highways in real life connect between cities. And good urban design should see highways outside of city centers and away from neighbourhoods for the noise. So in CS, a highway basically can just run past your city and connect your city to a fictional place outside the map. I think it can be interesting to think about what you want the history of your city to be. If it is a point that has always been between other big places, it might be near a big highway crossing where two highways meet, if it’s more of a coastal city or an “end point”, there only needs to be a highway leading to the city.

    Some cities don’t have a highway at all and you need to drive quite far to get to the highway outside of town.
