Make sure to have them all around the city. Highways and Railways are also useful in reducing traffic.


Information on Goods – Imports and Exports

Good imports and exports have a high impact on the city’s income. The moment you start building your city, imports are started. However, players are introduced to these buildings on a later stage. There are three types of goods in this game – Food, Materials and Natural Resources. So once these are unlocked, please build the buildings to be self-sufficient. Imports actually take a lot of money. So if you can be self-sufficient, you can save a lot of money. And the city will also export the excess amount.

Beware the volcano! I built an enormous city and a volcano emerged right in the centre! So I lost connections with all zones and took a year to put out fires as none of my 10 fire stations was connected by rad.
