Cities: Skylines: Project Brussels (Part 1) - Road Layout
Description
Project Brussels is a three part video series about remaking Brussels in Cities: Skylines in a similar vein to Project Oslo - with little detail, instead focusing on capturing as much of the city as possible with a limited amount of mods and assets. But most of all, it's an exercise in testing the limits of the game in city recreations, and finding a balance between scale and detail. Spoiler alert: Brussels is sadly way too large, but it was fun while it lasted.

Please note: for this series, I used terrain.party to import real-world terrain data. This website no longer works.
For the map overlay image, I used Overlayer v2:

I'm aware that roads can be imported from OSM - the issue with this however is that it generates far too many network segments for such a large-scale build - hence I built most roads by hand. There are possible solutions to this issue, but that's a topic for another day :)
