How to Build Effective Public Transportation?

#1

Post by asriu »

This game have Bus, Tram and Train but any idea how to use it on efficient way?
Anyone have general idea who will use bus stop, train or tram station to which zone (density for example)? route, distance and such. Difference between small station, medium and big for train; small trams and big trams which track should be used and such? Public Transportation have nice animation, when see almost none use it although seem nice feel kind of waste.

Well from what i understand, you should use bus routes and stations for rural and suburban areas of your station. Metros usually are in downtown but you can't see them anyway xD. Trams are heavily concentrated in downtown with medium-big stations, but their stations get smaller as you get out of downtown (unless you arrive at a transportation hub)

Actually, no. Its essential to bring people to their jobs. But you could just replace the bus system with a more effective regional rail system, or maybe even light rail (tram).
