Roads are a construction which paves over large sections of flat terrain. They are most commonly used to give Template:L a reliable path to your fortress from the map's edge. A dwarf with the Template:L labor must haul materials (if any) to the site and design the structure before it can be finished by any available dwarf.

Dirt roads (b - O) can be constructed for free on any soil, removing Template:L and Template:L and preventing new ones from growing. However, they wear away over time, and have to be reconstructed periodically. Depending on the size of the road, this can be a hassle.

Paved roads (b - o) can be constructed with any building material, including Template:L, Template:Ls, Template:L and metal Template:L. These roads are permanent, and use less material than paving the same space with constructed Template:Ls. To avoid the hassle of long-distance hauling, it is advisable to place a Template:L near the desired site for your Architect to get materials from.
