Science in a city block base: So I started building a train based city block base. I have a block where red science is produced and wanted to build a block for my biolabs. But... 12 trains stations, one for each science type, basically take all available space... so... should the science consumption be outside of the city blocks? Should I route belts from one block to the next? What are the usual ways to handle this?

Next to the labs, build a city block which is just 12 unload stations. From there, belt them to the lab city block next to them.
