“why does no one walk to school anymore?”

Can’t wait to tell my future tamagotchi that I had to cross the highway ramp uphill both ways

Each state gets an equal number of drones in Congress?

Catapult could work in this situation. Just saying.

Probably the same people that approved this school

Nothing feeds the young, growing mind quite like lung cancer.

That's visually kind of disgusting but at least there, all the crossings are physically separate from the high-speed roads, and there's no way of accessing the main roads directly from the school. Mildly dystopian but fairly safe as long as the fences are maintained.

The one in the OP has access directly onto the high-speed roads, including for some insane reason an on-road crossing directly across the ramps, at the exact point where cars will be a) accelerating hard to join and b) coming around a curve so they can't see it's there until the last minute.

Where is this? It looks interesting.

It’s Dayton, Ohio. Here is the result of “urban renewal.”

u/fungnoth 9d ago

if it's such a big school. they can easily justify a bridge across the ramps

u/the_amatuer_ 11d ago

The redeeming factor about this is that you can see Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera house from here.

"we only lost two children to the cars last recess"

u/_xavius_ 11d ago

Hopefully those children didn't disrupt traffic too much.

u/BlackfishBlues 11d ago

The grieving parents wouldn’t get off the road, very inconsiderate smh

u/WalzartKokoz 11d ago

Already did that somehow. There's elementary school and playground inside the "roundabout" on the right.

u/Grouchy-Piece4774 MURICAN 11d ago

It's actually a technical school for children to specialize in lane math.

u/toad_spc37 11d ago

I did this w the statue of liberty in my old city, possibly the most American thing ever

u/ticklishdelicacy 11d ago

I was about to ask where the playground is until I zoomed in. Don’t worry guys, they get a shitty basketball court painted into the concrete, it’s fine

u/cat1554 10d ago

It's not super worn away, though! That's deluxe!

u/ticklishdelicacy 10d ago

Oh, silly me! Too bad they didn’t pay for the premium package so they could add a rusty swing-set and a metal slide that burns the kids’ asses as they go down.

5

u/Infinitydude314 11d ago

No, you see this school is actually the Frogger school.

5

u/Lazerus42 11d ago

Not a terrible idea. Some of these 4,000 student with 400 faculty schools need their own off ramp and on ramp twice a day.

u/Banned4lies 11d ago

recess time kids!

but Mrs teacher we don't have a play ground!

use the on ramp little timmy!

u/kanakalis 11d ago

this is actually a pretty good use of space

u/Special-Bear6283 11d ago

no air pollution mechanism in this game but an entire building will die because they're too close to a mall that is 'too loud'

u/Pretty_Track_7505 Enjinir 11d ago

fuck them kids

u/ArkhamKnight0708 11d ago

Always love when that school pops up. Thank you Dayton for making sure poor kids learn in the worst possible location

2

u/DavoMcBones 11d ago

That is literally my city skylines build, it's to force parents to drop off their kids with their car. Induced traffic!

u/dreemurthememer 11d ago

tf kinda elementary school has 3 loading docks?

5

u/Hirohitoswaifu 10d ago edited 10d ago

Exactly my thoughts, I found this place a while back and I'm positive it was a fire station. I'll have a look.

Edit: I recall now, it is actually a school. I hate r/fuckcars, especially considering this has nothing to do with cars, but this is a stupid decision.

School

This should be the link to it in Dayton Ohio.

I swear I saw this same picture like a year ago. Such an odd setup.

If this is prison, will it be great?

u/fartbox2222 11d ago

I love cars

u/Giggitygoo692 10d ago

Bc it looks like this was used as something different before. Never seen an elementary school with 3 garages

1

u/cabrelbeuk 10d ago

The 3 loading bay at the back would tend to prove that this was not supposed to be an elementary school
