Service point in pedestrian areas in Cities Skylines

In one of latest DLC for Cities Skylines named Plazas and Promenades came to game pedestrian areas. Today we will look more detailed on service points. They are essential for your pedestrian areas and you must focus on them and you must focus on them.

How and where to build service point?

First of all you need to build service point in your pedestrian areas. Is good to find place which is well connected to highway or other services because service points are main place where all traffic goes. So is good to plan place of your service point…

… if you need you could build more service points and you could after your pedestrian zone grow. There are three types of service points. Basic point is nonSpecialized point which supports everything. And after that there is service point focused on garbage and cargo.

So you could build garbage point closer to your garbage services and cargo points closer to highway or cargo terminals. So it allows you to play well with the efficiency of your zone. Other service points are open to you when you reach milestones.

If you need to build service point you must click on:

Parks & Plazas > Pedestrian Areas (walking icon) > Point

When build another service point?

Good question could be how identify when build another service point. In pedestrian areas zone details you could see information about “service point usage” if you see this percentage around 70 – 90% then could be good to build another service point.

You must check this statistics after you build new building in zones and they are become functional because this could change service point usage. If you don’t update your service point then you could have problems. You don’t have to keep track of it, but you may see problem icons after a while and need to do something. So it’s better to work and think ahead. 🙂

Service point milestones

If you need more service points then you need to reach pedestrian areas milestones. To get more service point types you must use capacity of your service points. Details you could see in pedestrian zone details.
