Monorail over Tram-On-Street?

[zebulon_stonehenge 135]

I was tinkering with one of my cities last night (SimCity 4 Deluxe, fully updated, with NAM 36 + various other plugins, incl Bullet Train). I have a monorail line (restyled as a Shinkansen line by the "Bullet Train" mod) coming into my city at center of north edge, heading for downtown (center of city tile). To get there, the most direct route is to cut right through a northern industrial neighborhood. But that would involve the monorail line crossing over several tram-on-street lines, and I can't get the draggable monorail tool to cross those; it says "cannot place monorail on reserved tiles" or similar wording. I can't find any puzzle pieces anywhere to do this either. Is there a way to have monorail cross over tram-on-street? If so, how do I do this? (As is it, I have to route the monorail completely around my industrial neighborhood, which works, but I'd prefer the more direct approach.)

ToS doesn't have huge cross compatibility unfortunantly, but if you upgrade the section the monorail must cross to ToR/TiR (Tram on/in Road), then a suitable crossing for monorail exists for those networks.
