    This is just a little idea to build a cul-de-sac lookalike-thing.....

    ...for this you can only use the 2 lane road...
    megascreen0001.jpg
    ....just put the small roundabout on the end of the road
    megascreen0002.jpg
    ...now you can build some residentials
    megascreen0003.jpg
    ....next step is to put some buildings next to the roundabout.....its a bit difficult cause the road-connection....should it not work you can build a tiny road-piece to place it....
    megascreen0004.jpg
    ...now you can decorate the inner and outer-roundabout with some trees and bushes
    megascreen0006.jpg
    .....also you can fill the empty places between the residentials with some hedges and furnitures
    megascreen0008.jpg
    ....for more realism you can put some ploppable cars on the short road-parts
    megascreen0009.jpg
    thats all....i hope that helps to build some suburban areas;)

    MODS that i use for this:

    XLN_Monty_CampingGrounds_v1.0
    Timofp_Deco_FurniturePack_v1.0
    XLN_EIWallCollection1_v1_0
    Lexs_Total_Greenery_Mod_V1.3

    If my roads were the same color as the roundabout, then this would be cool.

    Nice tuto man! The cul-de-sac mod is in Altiris' projects in the forums.

    Great idea, but you don't need to do this. You can use mod Cul de sac made by Altiris, it's works on CXL and CXXL
