How to trick your traffic lights into functioning the way you want in Cities Skylines 2

People say Cities Skylines 2 has no challenge to it. Well, try the challenge of actually getting functional traffic lights without mods. I figured out a way of getting split phasing and simultaneous (protected) left turns, and any combination of the two, to function. It's messy and it's ugly, but it does technically work!

Could probably use this in conjunction with the Traffic Light Enhancement mod.
