RHW can be intimidating for people who have never used it, and much more for those who are still new to the game. Here you'll find everything you could possibly know about how to use RHW.
Different Network Types
Basic Network Types
There is an assortment of different network types (essentially, how many lanes you want, and other variables.) Here's an illustration of the most basic ones:
Draw two of these parallel and opposite to each other like on real life roads (the yellow line is on the left for europeans). The most important network out of all of these that you'll be using is RHW-2. You'll find out why later in this tutorial.
In addition to these is a one way, single lane network which will be especially important in the construction of functional interchanges.
And finally, there's one more network you'll find appealing.
Elevated Networks
In addition to the basic network types there's an assortment of elevated types you can use also.
They essentially work the same way as ground level RHW, except roads can be drawn underneath them, much like the elevated maxis highway.
Filler Pieces
At the back of the menu for starter pieces you'll find a wide assortment of filler pieces. You'll find fillers for the following networks:
You'll find the fillers very useful in the future. Their usage will come later in this tutorial.

Filler Pieces
At the back of the menu for starter pieces you'll find a wide assortment of filler pieces. You'll find fillers for the following networks:
- RHW-4 (straight and diagonal)
- RHW-6S
- RHW-6C
- RHW-8S
- RHW-8C
- RHW-10
- MIS (straight and diagonal)
- RHW-3
