Did you plop this, or align to the road? I've found sometimes if I have pathways connected to roads, or I've placed a building in a particular way, it's difficult to upgrade. For instance: I build a school, then use anarchy to place some overhead pedestrian pathways that 'annoy' the school, they'll have to be deleted before I can upgrade. Just a suggestion. :)

i tried it 3 time once with one side road access, the other is just the building without road, the third time which is the picture with road on all sides it all ended in this odd error. also i don't use mods.

I can confirm this problem.
Btw. it has already been reported in the bug forum.

It seems the problem could be the curvature of the road in the base building on the top right side between the garbage parking lots and the containers.

However, with anarchy mod this works - but I would not rule out that this might brick the game at some point sooner or later.

Two workarounds:
1) use the Anarchy mod options to disable the 'Invalid shape' error, or
2) use -developerMode and in the Simulation tab check the 'Bypass validation results'.

Thanks guys I hope they fixes it soon

It just happened to me. Gawd. I have a straight road. Used Anarchy no luck. Used Move It. No luck. Hopefully it'll be fixed soon. :)

With Anarchy,
1) select any tool [like the Bulldozer] that displays the Anarchy button
2) click the gear icon to open the Anarchy Options window
3) locate 'Invalid Shape' and toggle to 'Always', then deselect the tool
4) go back to the Incinerator and upgrade the depot

Your answer is very simple.
Yes ..Anarchy was on when you placed your building.
