I've made a few sections of road, more to come, on/off ramps, tunnel entrance, bridge sections (up and down or onto/off of a bridge). Any other suggestions for sections is helpful...
Not gonna make stuff like road blocks, tank traps etc. . . because those are seperate pieces to be placed onto the raod after it's on the board.

The titan and leman russ chassis (FW, note the sponsons) are for scale purposes.

"On/off ramps" are feeder roads/slip roads/merging roads etc . . .

Christened my roads today, they helped a stormhammer company, plus Leman Russ upgrade and 2 Hydra move faster to kill all hopes of Pulsars Black Templars being victorious!

I'm gonna cut loads and spray them road colour, then you can have them and damage and detail them as you like. It's painting the white stripes that gets really annoying - so you'll have to do that, everything else is quick and easy.
