It's not meant to be a through road. It's meant so you can connect to either side. This should not be built as part of your main road infrastructure.

Yeah, everybody thinks it should let traffic through. But it doesn't!

Maybe there needs to be some easily identifiable markings or a note on the tooltip to denote non passthrough items to help stop the confusion.

The model itself looks confusing.

i mean, i would never think that road traffic should drive through a transformer! but i understand that it looks like a road that cars should pass through. it is not nor intended to be, this needs to be made clearer is all. the reason there is two roads like that is merely to allow for connection on either sides or both.

I understand that it may not be part of the main road infrastructure, however building equipment and services should be able to pass through. I have an area behind the other side of the transformer where I've put some conveyor belts and there is no possibility to reach them.
Same with the garages, if you connect two sets of them directly, the construction office doesn't see any connection for the middle road.

And how come people are passing playgrounds freely, but cannot pass through a parking lot...

This should be considered a bug.

Not to mention the small bus stop (roadside); it's through traffic for cars and pedestrians (?), but construction crew cannot build the pathways from there, you need some temporary pathway connected to a normal road.

Yeah, for pipes and electricity lines the crews just go through the connected building, yet cannot do it for roads and paths. I'm pretty sure it can be reprogrammed.
