• Using AI to create renders of streetscapes? Showing possible transformation of existing places?

  It's not AI backed, but I've found Streetmix to be very useful for that kind of task. There are options for car, bike, and transit lanes. It only gives you a cross section of the street, so you can't model intersections, but it's a great tool for showing how streets could be rearranged. Source: about 3 years ago

• Is there an authoritative "Dutch Road Design Guide" published by Dutch government or a respected NGO?

  Oof that sucks. I just learned about this thing called Street Mix (from Shifter’s YouTube channel), and it’s pretty cool. It’s just a cross section view of a street, but it was fun to play with. https://streetmix.net/ Doesn’t work on phone browsers, btw. Source: over 3 years ago

• A Protected Bike lane design I made for Clark/Lincoln/Wells. (Current design in second image)

  Nice! If you want to figure out actual lane widths/etc, I'd recommend creating some Streetmix cross cuts. It would help give a visualization of the curb to curb space allocation at ground level. Source: over 3 years ago

• Cities: Skylines II | Wishlist for CS2, Megathread. List and discuss your ideas and must haves here

  I really want to see an intuitive asset designer, especially for networks. Something similar to https://streetmix.net would be ideal. Being able to do it on the fly (particularly around intersections) would be ideal but id settle for a separate mode. Source: over 3 years ago

• Thanks for the suggestions, here’s the updated Bike Lane mock up! (warning: stroad)

  Nice work! Here are a couple of resources that might be helpful: - NATCO’s Urban Street Design Guide. They have an excellent collection of design patterns with high quality illustrations. - https://streetmix.net has an easy to use tool for street design but it is 2D. I haven’t used it myself yet. I am not sure if it can be used to design intersections. Source: over 3 years ago

• My unlikely hope for C:S 2 - completely overhaul the road system

• Do you think Division street should be redesigned?

  A fun tool for this is streetmix.net you can easily visualize your street plan with many of the modern road treatments. (for width north division is about 30 meters wide) Here is my attempt at a realistic redesign, and slight more ambitious here . Source: almost 4 years ago

• How do we fix the northbound intersection @ Elston & Milwaukee?

  What's your idea? Streetmix is a great tool on desktop for mocking up your idea. You might also want an overhead drawing. Anyone you know that can draw to scale is your best resource. Concrete curb? Draw it. Take that to the alderman, Burnett in the new maps. Ask for a letter of support. Source: about 4 years ago

  Looks like https://streetmix.net/ just FYI, it only works on desktops and tablets for now. Source: about 4 years ago

• Pedestrian safety project on tap near Mercedes-Benz Stadium

  I did it really quickly this morning and I am a bit restricted by what streetmix.net allows, but I feel like it gets the point across that 36' of vegetation is asinine. Source: over 4 years ago

• I like to reimagine what Ottawa streets would look like if more space were given to pedestrians and people on bikes: here's Carling Ave

  This is just a cartoon, Streetmix (the tool I used to make this illustration) only gives so many lighting options! I agree though, the lighting would have to be more substantial to properly illuminate the street at night. Source: over 4 years ago

• I like to reimagine what Ottawa streets would look like if more space were given to pedestrians and people on bikes: here's Carling Ave

  This is my idea for a more pedestrian- and biking-friendly Carling Ave. I made it with streetmix.net, using rough measurements taken from Google Maps looking East along Carling at Preston (Street View here). In principle it should be possible to cary this design, or something like it, all the way from Bronson to Bayshore. Carling Ave is a dangerous, noisy, ugly and inefficient use of public space, and I wanted to... Source: over 4 years ago
