@ marihood, the blog you have linked too refers to the international servers, so in theory PE should have been released to .zz today at the latest. So IMHO the date in the blog is at the very least optimistic. But then I wisely gave up trying to predict inno's next move a long time ago.

The buildings which need to be connected by 2x2 roads in order to work - do they need to be connected with full 2x2 straight from town hall or a single piece of 2x2 do the trick? Since if it is the latter, it will look real ugly with people having single 2x2 road piece to get the building effective, then countinue with normal 1x1 till you reach next building and so on.

the roads look more like an airstrip than any normal roads i've ever seen, and no bonus? sucks

Yes, I must agree to this. InnoGames please add atleast 60-80 happiness to the two-lane streets! I see no reason why an one-lane street would give happiness but not a two-lane
It's not fun to be forced to build like 10 cultural buildings if all your houses are high-rises 
I would agree on this as well. Since these roads are a must, but are 2x2, they're literally a waste of space with no happiness bonus. A piece of Promenade gives 35 happiness, double it and you'd make 70. I'd agree on 80 happiness, as Falcon has said above, simply because in my opinion bigger buildings (as roads still fall in this category) should give a better outcome.
We already get enough size-changing buildings with each age, especially with IndA and now PA, plus the 2x2 MUST roads, to have them give literally nothing. I really hope this is at least put under consideration.

I dont think the idea of those roads is to boost culture/happyness, but productivity. In fact the buildings that require 2x2 roads are more productive.
Besides, they are not a must. You can always sell them after you have produced the goods you need.
Since I dont have an active account here on beta server though, I'd have to wait for the update to see whether I'm gonna build them at all. I think I will though, but who knows.

even if you factor in an extra 3 spaces (not all buildings will require this of course, just using the 24 hr house as an example) the buildings are more productive per square. I did not figure out the cost of making up for cultural happiness though. This will certainly be different for different people because some won't need the extra happiness

Yeah, but you'll still need population. And population needs happiness. And happiness needs cultural buildings. To get enough happiness, we will need like 10 cultural buildings. In IndA, I managed to fit 17 military buildings into my city, using only 1d houses and still have 120% happiness. I see no reason why a later age would force me to have fewer military buildings?
I understand that the productivity is increased, but not only are 2-lane streets 2x2 in size, they also must be connected to the Town Hall directly (not through 1x1 roads). So they take up extra space AND they're also harder to work with/plan your city. I love the challenge of redesigning my city, but I think this is a bit too much. If they do not provide any bonus, they should definitely not have that high cost (because as much as they're good, they're also a very big inconvenience).
