How do human visitors to your planned project get there? And where do they park their vehicle?
Learn here how to use road, path, and parking tools to create transport circulation very quickly.
Access the Roads & Parking menu (Car Icon) in the Draw Palette at the bottom of the app window.
Here, you will find parking, path, and road tools.
Select Path or Road from the transport menu.
Click at the vertices of the path of travel. Double click at the endpoint to close the tool.

Roads and Paths intersect nicely
Paths and Roads have slightly different properties to adjust. You can create Road and Path usages in the usage editor to save any repeatable types to your library.
Adjust the width of the road in the properties menu.
Adjust the “footpath width” property to manipulate the sidewalks.
Adjust using the up/down arrows, or type in an exact value.
Adjust the width of the path in the properties menu with the “Footpath Width” property.
Adjust using the up/down arrows, or type in an exact value.
<aside> 💡 Roads and paths have a pre-set color to assist with “healing” intersections. Currently, the road and path color are fixed and cannot be changed with a color property.
