Whilst I imagine incredibly inefficient, its so beautiful..!

Looks like they said "We need someone who can design our city"

Why inefficient? I thought its structure would make it more efficient, or am I missing something.

Edit: I read about the intersections now, but if they act as roundabouts it should be able to work just fine right?

I don't think they are roundabouts, looking from above (correct me if I'm wrong). Sure, it looks like there are 9 or so big roundabouts. But for every roundabout there are 50 semaphore 4way intersections.

Think it's as efficient as it looks?

I have seen some comments complaining about the traffic so probably not.

All those six way intersections look awful for traffic.

Those intersections remind me of Washington, DC, and there they are indeed very bad for traffic.

It feels like modern cities, at least here in Europe, are trying to effectively remove traffic from their centers. They do this, seemingly, by making car traffic a burden, and public transit easier and often free! I'd say La Plata would be perfect for this!

OMG! this is amazing!
