The Grid
This map is not intended to be the slightest bit "realistic". I wanted a map that I could build a huge city on that would be super efficient, so I spent about a week creating, play testing, and tweaking this map.
12 lane highway grid, all fully connected with a intertwined rail system.
I’m assuming you can use any theme or LUT you want with this map, so the ones I have listed in the required section are just if you want the map to look like mine.
There are no open ends on the grid. The best way to connect into it is with a six lane road right where the off ramps meet on the roundabout, then use Traffic Manager Mod to remove traffic lights.

I’ve attached a couple of screenshots above showing where to connect to it.
There are no resources on the main 25 tiles because I wanted all my industry to be on the outside islands, but you can use Extra Landscaping Tools mod to add or remove resources in game to your liking:

81 Tiles mod not absolutely required, but very highly recommended:

If you like the map, please give it a thumbs up!
Tips are always appreciated!
