Just made this giant. The image looks choppy at left because I pasted imagery from the adjacent city tile to illustrate the 8 lanes of expressway crammed along the avenue. The avenue serves local traffic while the expressway is strictly to serve a large business district not shown here.

A lot of stuff seems a little overcomplicated; the MIS that goes between the ponds for example could be pulled off a little more "elegantly" by branching it off parallel to the highway it comes out of, then putting it across both sides of the highway, bringing it back down, parallel to the highway and merging it in again. Don't know if I'm any good at explaining what I mean, but basically, it doesn't need to do two sharp right turns and one sharp left if it just went over the highway ahead of it with a 90° FlexFly arrangement. There is insufficient space on this small tile for that arrangement.

I just wanted to throw my two cents since I just suffered this irritation a moment ago. I am running Windows 8 and the above method does work. I did have to alter how I accessed the command prompt as Windows 8 does not have the Start button that we are used to. I navigated to the command prompt in Explorer (C:\Windows\System32\cmd) and right-clicked on it to select "Run as Administrator".

Hrm... That looks like many highways here... They were originally paved with concrete and then re-paved over the years with asphalt because it was cheaper at the time.

Toll booth / parking entrance and exit for RHW 4 (RHD)

Nonny, it has been tried before and it failed. If I recall correctly, metrication was attempted in the 1970s. Arizona has a few road signs in metric as remnants of that attempt.

EA Says SimCity 'Has Recovered From a Challenging Launch'
AIX commented on Haljackey's article in News
$50 says the servers are shut down within 2 years. Shall we get a pool going? -
This is not an interchange between two motorways per se, but an interchange between two major arterials with expected speeds of about 50 km/h. Avenida 4 de Julio is the large street with up to 8 lanes in each direction. I am looking to replicate something similar to this: http://goo.gl/maps/hLGew in Buenos Aires, Argentina. This large boulevard will be the apex of commerce and culture for the region. Local Sims will say "Everything is on Avenida 4 de Julio!".

A multi-modal connection between two cities.

A bit late on the comment train, but those apartments look so much like the old Pruitt-Igoe public housing in Saint Louis.
