(I was going to comment on Spooky's latest post, but the quote option doesn't seem to work for me, or I don't understand how it should be used. I postpone my comments).

In the edit part of my latest post I mentioned that the pictires shown didn't reflect the proper situation in Desognes. Actually, on hindsight, I should simply have removed that post. Since it is still there, here are better pictures.

The positioning of the 2 intercity subway links between Desognes and Marlande, seen in Desognes, is as follows:



1 is the older link, 2 is the more recent link. It can be seen that the old link arrives 'outside' of the current commercial zone and connects to the rest of the subway/GLR network at an extremity of that zone. The new link is better positioned, connecting more directly with the center of the commercial zone.


Traffic on the old link has been decreased and the link is no longer saturated. The link is used in both directions, but the bulk of the usage is Sims coming from Marlande to go work in various commercial buildings; buses are used in some cases to complete the commute. Usage in the other direction is very minimal.




Traffic on the new link is still relatively low and has potential for growth. Similarily to the older link, the new link is used mainly by Sims coming from Marlande to work in the commercial area of Desognes, whereas traffic moving in the other direction is very low:




The intercity subway connections in this case are now considered as under control and I'll turn my attention to other cities in the cluster.
