Is anyone else upset about the additional road upgrades?

Wow, I'm scr*wed then. I have intersections all over the place. Would adding more bus terminals help to minimize the road upgrades? It's too bad we can't build subways on here as we could with the older PC Simcity 2000 game.

I am constantly spending all my Simoleans on road upgrades as well...I can't really save up enough for anything significant.

Thanks for the advice. It seems with the high costs of these road improvements that it would be too costly to just bulldoze everything and start fresh. I've actually started to move buildings to open area to delay the inevitable.  That does help but lately I've just been biting the bullet and upgrading.

It's like a daily tax. Every morning I start the game I know I'm going to get slapped with a $900-12500 "road improvement".

Right there with you.  The reason for my original post was that they added 2-3 levels above what was supposed to have been the "maxed out" level.  I've played the games with moving around buildings and refacing them, but eventually you get to the point where you've done as much as you can.

What bothers me the most is that, like GaryHymes was saying, my population can sit at the same level for days on end, but yet each morning I have a section of road that all of the sudden thinks it needs to be upgraded.  That's BS.
