I think you may want to edit the following line for any worker units in the Civ4UnitInfos.xml file:

<iWorkRate>100</iWorkRate>

I believe the lower the number, the slower they work. be sure you change it for anyone who can build improvements such as the indian fast worker also.

Civ4BuildInfos.xml under then Units folder, it list the <BuildInfo> elements which specify the Improvement and the amount of work required (base worker rate is 100 bumped to 150 after Steam/HagiaSopia so divide to get the turns), it also specifies if the unit is consumed in the process ex WorkBoat. Units reference these BuildInfo elements so it possible to have different Units create improvments at different speeds.

A summary of both the above options

if you want to make ALL improvement buildings take longer then lowering the <iWorkRate> from Civ4UnitInfos.xml is a much more efficient way.

If you want to make specific improvements ONLY take longer to do e.g. roads, then go Civ4BuildInfos.xml and raise the <iTime> tag
