Expected result
Towns allow upgrading roads and bridges to faster/equivalent type, even with poor ratings
Actual result
Towns always disallow conversion with poor ratings, even though upgrading would ostensibly benefit them. No town council would ever turn down someone else paying to upgrade their infrastructure 😉 Trying to convert to a slower roadtype on the other hand should require good ratings.
Ideally this should be extended to also allow bridge types to be "downgraded" when you have good ratings (current behavior never allows downgrading town-owned bridges). This would be more consistent with roadtype behavior, and would make it possible to change the type of bridges in cities without always having to demolish them first in order to build a "lesser" type (as long as you maintain good ratings, anyway).
Steps to reproduce
Load a roadtype NewGRF and try to convert a road or bridge to a faster type in a town with a poor company rating
