Sloping road

I'm aware of the fact, that this might not be a new topic for this forum. But I can't find an answer for it - how do I do a sloping road?
I'm attaching a picture of my road, that leads down into garage. I've tried constructing it out of terrain, slabs, roofs, objects from library, whatever. It never seems to work well, I have to either divide it into few objects, which never perfectly fits t each other or when I use terrain tool - it's always bugged, some points don't fit, even though I change their height - so I have to move them manually untill they look ok (which is still not perfect).
So in short - my question is - what is your way to do this kind of road, how do you set up a right angle etc.

Wouldn't it be cool, if Archicad had a tool to easily create such a slope with free shape?

Mesh is the simple answer for a beginner.
We now have the Morph tool to distort planes, but it is tricky.
