Hey everyone,

I've been exploring different ways to grow my city's economy in Cities: Skylines 2, and I was wondering if anyone has had success with generating income through transit trade.

For example:

  • Using my city as a hub for goods to pass through on their way to other destinations.
  • Setting up efficient transport networks (like ports, train stations, or airports) that attract external trade routes.
  • Leveraging trade policies or zoning strategies to maximize profits from imported and exported goods.

Has anyone tried this approach? If so, what tips or strategies worked for you? Also, does the game's mechanics even allow for a city to act as a trade hub, or is it more focused on producing and exporting goods directly?

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences!
