  I have heard that you will get the more roads needed message if any of
  your zones are connected to the road/rail net with only one block.

  i.e.         |
	   ----+
	       ZZZ	      ZZZ
	       ZZZ     or  ---ZZZ
	       ZZZ	      ZZZ

    would cause a demand for roads.  However, I was told that this is a false
    demand and that the Sims are perfectly happy without it.  To get rid of the
    message, try building roads like:


  i.e.          |
	   -----+
	       ZZZ	     |ZZZ
	       ZZZ     or  --+ZZZ
	       ZZZ	      ZZZ

in order to have your roads or rails border two squares of each zone.  I can't
vouch for the veracity of this, but some playing a while back seemed to
indicate that this was, in fact, the case.
