Multi-Highway

A Multi-highway is a highway network in SC4 that involves an inner and outer lane highway system. This can expand the Maxis ground highway from a 2 tile, 6 lane network to a 4 tile, 12 lane network. lakeyboy has written a guide uploaded to the STEX (here) explaining how to make such a highway.

However, the images he posted are no longer found in his guide, making it difficult for first-time users to understand how to make it.

A photo tutorial for a multi-highway setup:

Multi-RHW, shown used with v.12 of the RHW (the first version).
Multi-RHW, shown used with v.20 of the RHW (the latest version).

In addition to the Multi ground highway, a similar concept can be applied to the RHW network. This creates a minimum 4 tile network, containing at least 8 lanes. The concept was first discovered by Haljackey and a guide was written soon after.. Prior to the v.20 release of the RHW network, the Multi-RHW was extremely difficult to construct. With the release of v.20, Haljackey rewrote because the concept was changed, making it much easier to construct Multi-RHWs.

For more information, see RHW-8 in the RHW article.
