Finally a good point for not having to replace all the roads in a city to a new system: a real city also has different road styles and widths. You can mix different road styles in a city, just as in a real city!

I’m stealing that bus stop build! Haha. Please don’t misunderstand me, I loved the road video. But for some reason I kept looking at your bus stop. Genius use of the new road plates slope as the roof. Please keep up your amazing work! Also, Happy Birthday!

Thanks so much for the shoutout, and I'm glad you liked that idea! You took it to the next level and it looks amazing!!

Wow, that bus stop and sewer drain looks awesome. So simple, yet so effective!

Very nice idea, I’m very interested in using the new road plates , but not in a mils fashion. Thanks for sharing

The more and more I see and use the new road plate system, the more I realize how amazing it is! It's so versatile and you can do so much it! I know people will still have their love for the old road base plates, but the new road plates are cool!

The hollow space on either side under the sidewalks would be a great place to hide wires to light the city! ...and I just bought a bunch of the old road plates haha

Very cool think I have 25 or so Road Plate boxes now.

These look amazing. We're already planning to build sidewalks onto our roadplates, but we LOVE the curbs and drains you've built on yours. Definltey gonna try something similar out in our city!

Thats a really awesome set up for the new road plates, but i cant imagine how much extra that costs just for one little section.

Hello from France thanks a lot for these very good ideas

Saves a lot of money in comparison to slot built roads.

The new roads look great and save tons of space in city layouts. Less road space more builds

This looks awesome going to give it ago myself but I need to raise it all by one plate to allow lighting under the road

I like the new road plates from the beginning. There are more possibilities to create road and walkway styles.

This Right here is why lego made this.

This is awesome. The bus stop and the drain lines work so well.

I adore the new road plates, they are so much better looking than every brick-built road I've seen. The thing that drives me nuts, is the 16-wide roads. I mean, it makes the sidewalks when you put one of these next to a modular with the standard sidewalk, look HUGE! I limit my sidewalk on my road plates to just 4 studs on either side of the road, and when blended with the modular sidewalks it seems more reasonable... Unless the plan is to put the planter areas on the road plates some locales have. :) I love the curbs, and now I'm plotting my next bricklink order as I'm slowly working on redeveloping my city after my recent move... and There's so much to think about! :D I've been using the road plates and 48x48 baseplates to create boulevard roads for my main drag, and I built them with an option to be planters/trees/green belt in the middle, OR a trolly track. :) Cool Build! Love it! :)

I personally like wide sidewalks because you can add more items without it affecting minifigure walking space. For example street lights, trees, benches, payphones and paper boxes to name a few. You can brick build the lanes to be wider as well and still use the new road plates to help make the sidewalks smaller. :)

Hi Daryl Happy birthday, Thanks for sharing your tips, I learned a lot watching your videos

Man that looks really sleek!

Looks great! Looking forward to seeing your new video with MILS and the curb!

So simple yet so amazing!! Love this.

I think that curb and gutter look is really nice. I'd be interested to see how you would finish off a corner at an intersection with this curb style, also incorporating wheelchair access ramps at the crosswalk.

Yes - these curved slopes look very slick as curbs but I guess you have to break that pattern on every corner ? I think your original design with the new road plates and straight curbs is a bit easier to handle in that regard.

Just brilliant. Thanks.

I am going to have to use these new road plates since I wanted a city and I planned to start in 2021. Your videos have really helped me embrace the new roads even though I absolutley hated them in the beginning. It will be expensive but hopefully it will be worth it in the end.

Nice job buddy.

Definitely looks good seeing this in video form and rotating around :)

Nice idea maybe Add this style to the roads around the airport it would give the roads a privater loook and happy birthday may you get more lego to quench my thirst for the same 😅😅😂

yeah, this looks amazing

Very nice setup, I am going to try it myself. Thanks for the good idea Daryl. And a very Happy Birthday bud.

Wow, the drain

People need to realize this is meant for kids. And if I had this growing up I'd be able to fit so much more structure close together than with the base plates I had as a kid. Those plates seriously limited your space. And I remember I had to squeeze everything in in my bedroom to fit all my buildings the road and train sets haha.

I am using the new road plates in my city. I’ve been using a similar method that allows you to do drains and handicap crosswalk access.

Wow that looks good, with the 2 sets I got of the t junction, I actually had fun with it. I don't have a city and just have city and creator 3 in 1 buildings I managed to create a bit of a t junction section of a "city". With the creator modern town house and petshop/coffee shop forget it's full name, as the main focus of it. I don't have much 2x2 tiles but I managed to make a side walk for the corner building, the focus building. What I did was use the green plates on the sides and the 2x4 to connect, then 2x4 in the areas in between, 1x4 to fill it in, leaving 2 studs for the buildings to connect. For the modern town house set, I added 2x whatever plates to add additional surface, then connecting on top with my tiles. Then 2x2 plates under the set to lift it up connecting it to the road section by the additional 2 stud plates i added. Looked good for just a basic setup.

This is sexier. So much better and realistic looking.

I like the new road plates mainly for the ease and build ability they offer. While I don’t use the roads with curbs or sidewalks, I may have to from now on if you keep finding great ways to showcase the roads.

Seeing as I don't build city, this set is not as important to me, however I do have other ideas for them. Nobody is buying them here so if I want them, there are 3 and can be mine.

U should add little street carts or fruit stands to give ur side walks sone light

The road plates are cool, but I hope we get road plates with streetcar tracks built-in.

Wonder exactly the same thing, how would you do a rounded corner with the curb?

I’m an AFOL with limited LEGO space. These new plates are fantastic. The lanes on the “old” baseplates were way too wide. The packs of the baseplates were never on store shelves outside of a LEGO store. The new road plates are more readily available aiding in city expansions. What is with all of the love for the old curves? The vast majority of cities are based on a grid pattern, no curves. Even the corner modulars have sharp corners, imagine the entrance and exit of the corner garage needing 32 studs worth of curve to enter. The corner plates did not seem as useful. But, this opinion is from a new AFOL who only had a taste of the old roads before these were introduced. Sorry this was so long.

Needs to be wider with a yellow center line, but otherwise I like the curbing.

You make learning fun lol

The more I see the new system around now makes me think I should start getting into.

So far, the curved edge os my favorite way to utilize the new road plates. Great job! JANGBricks had a method to use two roads side by side to facilitate the large 6-8 wide cars. Thoughts?

The curb looks really cool nicely softens the approach to the road. But still annoyed with the cut outs on the road plates and think the original sideways mils look better.

I was not planing to use the new roads in my city and I was very wrong because since January I have added 2 of the road packs and the skate park which was planed to be added into my city with 3 more road packs on the way so my city will be back to normal in the next month and a half or so.

I do brick built roads in my city. But a good cheaper option is using the new road plates in a mils as well. I sell instructions for both versions on my website and they are currently on sale half off.

All of the match to scale road concepts are separate element constructions. The secondary market...owned by TLG....will never be without any fabricated part. Prices next to gold is the standard of perfection, yes. The documentation of building with the new Road thing is helping everyone everywhere, good show! Using a Waffle Plate is more offensive than this new "fix it" element. Actual Road Plates SHOULD BE Brick. Actual working Train elements still wait decades.
