Any city's skylines players know what actually would fix this problem?

I mean, that game does not actually properly stimulate transportation. The solution is:

  1. multi use zoning to reduce commute distances
  2. Make every mode of travel equally safe, convenient, and pleasant.

Buses and trains. That, or spaghetti interchange that are bigger than the rest of the city. Also, replace key arterial roads with a pedestrian path, call that path a park, and charge $20 for entry. That will easily fund all the city services and nobody will be too inconvenienced by having to pocket their car as they walk across the "park" to get between neighborhoods. Now excuse me, I have to go murder a little blue bird that won't shut up about the garbage piling up

One long meandering 6 lane road that makes up the entire city. I'm not even kidding, that's pretty much the optimal solution in the game.

Caesar was like that, too. Citizens couldn't pathfind if their life depended on it, and it sometimes did.
