Welcome to fabulous Las Vegas, our first city fix sent in by FezVrasta!

Our city builder asked for help with downtown traffic—Las Vegas has about 58,000 cims who mostly live, work, and shop in high density districts. We've solved most traffic problems downtown and in the industrial area, but public transportation across the city is still a mess, and we're going to fix it!

In Part 3, we'll do an analysis of the current public transportation system, which includes buses and metros. Then we'll do a complete teardown and rebuild focused primarily on metros. In order to make public transportation effective, we make several changes to improve the city's walkability. At the end, we'll also tackle traffic problems that occur now that Las Vegas' delivery trucks are free to move throughout the city.
