Maybe this is encouragement from the game to build alternative transport options like light rail, trams, move jobs closer to residential districts or establish suburbs to lower city population, tax cars more, build bike lanes, build more sidewalks, etc. In real life, there's not usually a solution for traffic. If you build out more streets, people are incentivized to drive more. I'd love this game to be this realistic. Its shouldn't reward this kind of simplistic gamer "solve the puzzle" mentality if the puzzle should rightfully be unsolvable.

I found myself planning new districts entirely around this problem with bus, metro, and pedestrian walkways (maybe its just me but right now commuter rail seems to be basically unused and doesn't seem to do anything). So it definitely does force you to think about how you're laying out your city and plan things out beyond then just tossing down a grid and calling it a day.

- SlashmanX 12y agoYou have to set "lines" for commuter rail just like metro and buses
