I’m still quite new to redstone, and am having trouble to wiring things neatly. i have 8 lines that start off next to each other, but need to feed into lines that have a block gap inbetween each one. My current solution works, but is messy and hard to read. is there a better way of doing this?

Railstone is the answer. Essentially your input will supply power to powered or activator rails. Then you can detect that input with an observer. If you need it to stay on, you can place a copper bulb and a comparator after the observer. To split the circuit you can just offset the observers in different ways.
Also side note, it looks like the logic circuit you are trying to make is called a signal strength decoder. There are a couple more compact designs. I spent a while trying to do binary with signal strength for a massive rail project. If you have any questions, I could boot up my test world.
If it works it works, there’s not that much else to do unless you’re willing to add delay by spacing out the redcoder like this

Looks horrendous but I can’t think of an easier way to do it (granted I only spent like 2 minutes thinking but still)
if you want it to be more readable, an easy way to do that is to color code them. Another thing would be to not lower the redstone line unnecessarily
