Description

Take the next step with Plazas and Promenades.
Say Goodbye to noise and pollution and Hello to pedestrian streets, car-free areas, and modern plazas. It’s time to level up your Cities with this environment-friendly expansion!

Pedestrian Streets

Let your citizens walk freely on pedestrian-only streets! Place them in your city like any other road and create new green city centers free of most vehicles and noise pollution.

Pedestrian areas and new Policies

Activate three area-specific policies for your city including Slow Driving: all roads in the pedestrian area, except highways, get a speed limit of 20 km/h. Sugar Ban: increases the average lifespan of citizens in the pedestrian area but decreases their happiness. Street Music: increases happiness and noise pollution in pedestrian commercial areas.

District Specialization

We added 3 new district specializations: offices, high-density residential areas, and high-density commercial areas. Setting a specialization on a district affects all area squares in that district that will spawn buildings with a different visual appearance and a gameplay effect. Each specialization features 24 new modern wall-to-wall buildings!

City service buildings

Service buildings are important, but how about awesome-looking service buildings? Connect them to pedestrian areas by matching their visual style and providing services that contribute to good happiness values (one of the main metrics of a successful pedestrian area).zone).

Walkable cities OP. Ive wanted this DLC since the game came out. Car-centric cities are a pain to deal with (and also ugly). Now i can make cities walkable and bikeable and I don't have to worry about traffic anymore.

Good DLC. But I still want to talk about the broader picture. My disagreement over the excessive yet also overpriced DLCs, subscription system, theft of community's labor under the guise of "Content Creator Packs" and

This DLC could have been great. The assets are (mostly) great, and the new service buildings are nice too. The problem comes in the bugs. I've only really noticed one, that the garbage collection points are questionable

Over a year since this dropped and its still broken. I have no idea how paradox justfies dropping a broken DLC and then releasing more afterwards without fixing the former.

this DLC is just disappointing on another level... so first things first, the pedestrian AI is extremely bugged as i see people walking through each other A-train style. Besides than that, the new assets that it adds

I like this DLC but maybe not for the price? It's a bit expensive for what it is but ti's a bit of a mixed bag to be honest. On the one hand, having street sections ONLY for walking, with zoning is really nice, and can
