2 Lane Networks – Vanilla Variant

Street Running Tracks

Street running railroading or on-street tracks is railroad infrastructure that is sharing space with other elements of the traffic; either vehicular or pedestrian traffic. As trains are operating on non-segregated track, they adhere to rules just like other elements of the traffic and they operate with reduced speed. Because of the safety concerns they raise, street running tracks are becoming a rare sight across the world, however it’s a practice that is still in use, especially in USA.

These networks aim to fill that small niche of content, as much as it’s possible in Cities: Skylines and its technical limitations.

Street running tracks come with various track styles and functions thanks to Adaptive Networks.

Tram / Train Support

– Networks are capable to run BOTH train and tram lines.
– Doesn’t support any tram or train support on roads as tracks are on median
– Ramp network functions as train station track, if connected with pedestrian path.

Road Features

– Theme dependent asphalt for roads.
-1 and 2 lane trac variants with 2 lane roads.
– Visually compatible with Vanilla and Blank Roads.

Rail Features

– Customizable track style:
— Asphalt border
— Damaged asphalt border
— Wooden covers
— Light slab (recommended for trams)
— Heavy slab (recommended for freight)
– Customizable wire height:
— Disabled

– Customizable light props

Props

– All roads come with minimal set of props; these include:
– Traffic lights and speed signage,
– Custom manholes made for this pack,
– Streetlights from base game, that can be changed with BOB or NS2.
– You can further customize your roads by manually placing drive-in/way decals from Suburbia Prop Pack, which have matching textures with the road sidewalks.

Dependencies

– Adaptive Networks; to customize road, crossing style and props
– TMPE and Hide TM:PE Unconnected Tracks; for drainage
– Suburbia Props catenary support.
– Network Anarchy: Must be enabled at all times while dragging the roads.

Elevation

Networks contain ground, bridge and tunnel variants, thus they are feature complete.

Compatibility

Networks are compatible with most of the networks out on WS; I personally checked with vanilla and BIG URBAN roads and haven’t noticed any irregularities.

Texture & Material Share

All roads share identical texture and materials in order to optimize RAM use.

How to Find in-game

Located in road networks menu, alternatively you can look: "R2 On-street" or "r2-os"
