Just do it, once your city has enough money if the bank, or your income is large enough, double down on making a highway. Demolish some buildings and tear your city in half, just like in real life. Most of the time if you have enough traffic that you need a highway in the town, you could probably avoid it in game, by enhancing the public transit options, however, that wouldn't be realistic as to how cities are really run, so doing a highway every now and again is a fun change of pace.
The best way to get good at making a highway, is to make a highway, you can do it, set it up however you want, and see how it works. If something doesn't work right, change it and find out how to make it work for you. Or if it is broken, it may be more fun to leave it broken. Stuff like that happens in real cities all the time.
Make sure you adjust your public transit options when you're done splitting your city in half with your highway, since your bus routes will be interrupted.
