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

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

I believe another solution would be highways that are strictly for transporting of goods, rather than sharing roads with semitrucks.

Nah, very little of congestion is trucks. You can even see that in this picture. Plus, you're not trying to make driving easier, that will just cause more people to drive (one more lane bro). You make everything else easier and people choose to walk/bike/bus and the roads clear up because there's fewer people choosing to drive.
