Use of Roads
A building area (Residential, Commercial, or Industrial) cannot have a building on it without an adjacent road tile. In the case of larger buildings, there must be at least one road tile connected to it. In the case of other buildings such as a Water Tower or a Police Station, they will not function unless there is at least one adjacent road tile.

The Different Roads
Currently, there are nine types of roads, country roads and dirt roads, avenues, highways, one-way roads, expressways, national country roads, national one-ways, and national highways.

Dirt Roads
Dirt roads are the messier looking, two lane roads. They initially cost 10.0T per tile with a 1.0T monthly price. Vehicles move slower on these tiles,which results in more traffic.

Country Roads
Country roads are the larger counterpart to the small roads. Although. They initially cost 200.0T per tile with a 2.0T monthly price. Vehicles move faster on these tiles,Which will lead to decreased traffic. Most roads can be made into bridges,but some plugin roads cannot.

One-Way Road
Similar to country roads, the one-way road is 2 lanes going in the same direction. This road type can be extremely useful in managing traffic if used correctly. They initially cost 250.0T per tile with an upkeep of 3.0T monthly.

Avenues
Avenues are nice decorative roads consisting of two One-way roads, each going in opposite directions (like a real road),with decorative trees between the roads. Thus they have four lanes, reducing traffic. They initially cost 300.0T per tile with an upkeep of 2.0T monthly.But it is more efficient to just put 2 one way roads together.

Expressways
Is a quasi-highway with 2 lanes that allow vehicles to go significantly faster then they would on a country road. It cannot connect buildings to the roadway grid so it's highly advised to only be used to connect district .Update:They can now. They initially cost 1.0kT per tile with an upkeep of 4.0T per month (more than triple the price of a country road).

Highways
Possibly the most interesting, the Highways is simply two one-way roads, put side-by-side and going in opposite directions with a slightly higher speed of an Expressway. Shockingly, these cost as much as a country road. They initially cost 2.0kT per tile with a 5.0T monthly price.

Riot roads(National roads now)
Riot roads(National Roads) behave just like their normal counterparts, with three exceptions. First, they can only be built in sandbox mode, or be found in the default region, which is the only place these can be found in a non-sandbox mode. Next, they have no monthly price, which is why they are in the default region.
