Diverting road traffic.

[ShortFuse]

Is it possible to make the traffic not travel on a certain section of road? For example if there was road contruction and cars needed to take a detour. Thanks.

Try using an invisibile road for the moving traffic to follow, and a small section of barely close but disconnected piece of road with no traffic. I did a similar thing for a road that runs into a mill yard. I didn't want the cars to disappear in front of me when I was switching freight cars.

Bear in mind that whenever roads split, traffic turns left, irrespective of what side of the road it drives on.

Why is this? I have tried many times to have a divided road where it dives under a railroad viaduct, only to have the traffic switch sides on me (for a US route)!:'(

It's just the way the game's coded. Ideally traffic should split right for countries who drive on the right, but it must have been overlooked...

There is a junction piece on the DLS designed to correct this, but I really can't remember what it's called. I seem to remember it was made by a German creator.

It's the Sen City Road Switcher by boat.

That might work, but it was another one I was thinking of...
