I have a solution here - not sure if it's exactly what you want - just by making more patches. There's a tricky transition going on in there

no : )

I thought it might control it better to cut a centre-line section - and include that in the network surfaces - I didn't do it in the end - bit it may give you better tangency - depends how far you need to take it

the network surface tool often gets you out of trouble - it is the most flexible of the surface tools

endpoints and junctions dont actually have to meet - as with other tools

and you can have as many cross-curves in 'm' and 'n' (direction) as you like

(you need more cross-curves for more control)

the NS tool accepts part-curves, grouped curves and even points as input

I'm really a fan !
