Road bridges and crossings ??? HOW ??

[theuros]

From my experience is almost imposssible to build roads over existing tracks. My station and tracks are preventing city expand … so i wanted to build roads to the other side .. which is impossible ..  I never succeded to build road over existnig tracks .. you must first have the road and then you can build tracks … so I tryed to create a bridgle .. no luck there …

has anyone any way o achieve this ?? .. is there a trick to do it ? ..   this is realy iritating …

thanx for any advice

You cant build roads over tracks, only the other way around. As for bridges you can use the M key to raise the road for nice looking bridges.

If you do not want bridges, delete that section of track.  Lay your road, then redo the track.

See this thread for both rail and road bridges over railway routes: http://www.train-fever.com/forums/topic/bridges-over-lines/  Many examples included.

Building a road over a railway is easy, drag a section of road across the track, roughly at right angles to the track and with the section of road about as long as the shortest station platform so that the railway line is in the middle of the road section.  Now press the ‘M’ key a few times and the road should raise up and a bridge appear, now click the green tick, voila.  If the bridge does not appear then you may need to make the piece of road longer.

OMG !!! The M key….. And i was having such a  hard time raising terrain, making sure you can drag the bridge across the track, etc….. OMG !!!

Thanks leew!  I was a little frustrated at bridge building until I read your post.  No more swearing!

I think the road bridges over rail are not very nice looking so I now exclusively dig a tunnel under the rail everytime everywhere. Use the m/n keys.
