Kzumastormz Posted July 19, 2022 Report Posted July 19, 2022 SORTING OF TRAFFIC Suggestion Description: Calais is the city with the highest number of players. The city is known for long traffic queues and where many players get their first ban. When you are on your way to Calais, you always drive past this exit (IMAGE A1 RED CIRCLE) A1 There is always a long queue of many players going down to the city. The road marked in red also has long queues due players getting out of (mechanic, garage, etc) After the bus update, the players have been divided into two groups. Trucks and buses. The problem with this is that everyone is going down the same exit + everyone is going through the same street. My suggestion intends to create less queues in calais How are we going to do this? If you take a look at picture (IMAGE A2), you can see how I think. The blue line shows where most people drive today The green line shows where almost no one is driving If we close the possibility for buses to drive down this exit The blue line, But let them drive down the next exit at the harbor The green line. Will we eliminate the possibility of creating a queue a little her The blue line. This system can be compared to a sorting station, this will make it easier to get into Calais, And it will be easier for bus traffic to arrive at their Bus station. A2 Any example images/video: BUS TRAFFIC TO CALAIS SHOWS "BUS TRAFFIC PROHIBITED" SIGN Why should it be added?: To create safer and less traffic Calais. Not least make it easier for buses to drive into the Calais. From Kzumastormz 4
James Posted July 20, 2022 Report Posted July 20, 2022 I am going to move this ahead to the next stage as if this was to be properly discussed, something similar to this might work such as a one way system etc. Perhaps even a better "exit" into Calais would help traffic too.

mth. Posted September 20, 2024 Report Posted September 20, 2024 Hello @Kzumastormz, After careful consideration from within the team, we have decided not to move forward with your suggestion. The city of Calais enjoyed changes from SCS Software back in 2020, which introduced an entrance capable of accommodating a much higher flow of traffic into the city. Unfortunately, this northwestern roundabout remains largely underutilized by the community. Same goes with some companies such as NBFC, as most players would rather go to LKW - the first city from the drop-down menu in the custom dispatcher - leaving some areas emptier. We may consider subtle ways to encourage players to use this entrance and other companies, and balance traffic flow within the city. However, as long as some parts of the city remains underutilized by players, we will not consider making further changes to the city's layout. Therefore, we will decline your suggestion. Thanks for your understanding!
