Lego Road

[caravancarlos]

Hi All

Im looking a building a road for my lego city and was going to use bricks. I have a few questions:

• If you build a road out of bricks how do you build a pavement next to it that is higher than the road?
  
• How do you build a junction and have the road join up?
  

As Ive said I have never built this before and would like to buy the right bricks.

The bricks I am buying are 1x4 size bricks with 1x4 white and yellow bricks for the white lines and single/double yellow lines

Does anyone know of anything else I would need?

Cheers

Carl

Hi Carl,

I think you want to build a SNOT road, don't you?

The best way to start is a google image search for "lego snot road".

You'll find a lot of pictures answering your questions.

A good start would be this site: http://gallaghersart.com/page/custom_modular_snot_roads_version_sp04g

Best wishes

Our LUG has developed a standard for that. Here you can find instructions http://www.swebrick.se/index.php?topic=6350.0

That's really nice, and I especially like the branding. A T- or 4-way junction would be easy enough to adapt from the road plate, but do you have that designed or a standard for a curve?

No instructions for that yet, but here is a picture of a curve.
