Paths can be connected to the sidewalks beside roads. There are several types of paths in the game, but apart from the differences detailed below, they are functionally identical. If a road dead-ends, and there is another road nearby, it can be helpful to link the dead-end to the other road with a pedestrian path to allow citizens on foot an easy way out. Citizens will also walk parts of journeys that also involve other transport methods. The pavement path and bike paths can tunnel.Ĭitizens are prepared to walk surprisingly long distances to their destinations, and an investment in footpath infrastructure can relieve a considerable burden from a city's roads. Some paths can be elevated (with much steeper gradients than permitted for roads), allowing players to construct footbridges over major roads as well as other, more elaborate pedestrian systems. Paths are placed like roads, and can be straight or curved.

Upkeep for paths are a part of the "Parks, Plazas and Landscaping" budget, however they offer no entertainment value by themselves and are, practically, part of the transportation infrastructure. Pedestrian paths are narrow (single-cell) tracks which citizens will use in combination with roadside pavements and crosswalks to reach destinations on foot. With the secondary mouse button, click and drag from the other desired end back towards the first point to create the slope. Slope Terrain - Click with the primary mouse button on one end of the area where the slope is to be located.Use the secondary mouse button for a stronger effect. Soften Terrain - Use the primary mouse button for a gentle smoothing effect.Level Terrain - Use the secondary mouse button to select the target height, then use the primary button to flatten terrain to that height.Shift Terrain - Elevate by pressing the primary mouse button, lower with the secondary mouse button.The cost of shifting, levelling, softening or sloping terrain is ₡12.80 per cubic cell. It can sometimes be helpful to level terrain so buildings look better, and even be necessary for larger buildings like airports. This enables the construction of new coastlines or mountain ranges or perhaps the removal of an inconvenient mountain. Soil is a resource which is accumulated by reducing the height of land, and is used elsewhere to increase land height. The Landscaping tab contains several tools that allow for changes in the terrain, which can help to change the physical design of the town.
