Have any roads been built anywhere on the new continents yet? We have land next to a road right of way in Foxboro. Wondering how much longer before the road crews get here!

Many people have complained about this, even on the older continents. It appears that the Lindens are not actually building roads at this time. Unless they have a major change in strategy, don't expect to your local roads for years, if ever.
(One interesting thing to note: people keep assuming these things are meant to be paved roads. It's entirely possible LL has recognized the importance of open unpaved areas to the environment, and intends the newer protected right-of-ways to be nature paths.  )_____________________

They have some well done brick pathways etc too. But it seems a little silly for them to have set the area aside and not do ANYTHING with it. And there are linden trees there overhanging property lines. |

But it seems a little silly for them to have set the area aside and not do ANYTHING with it. And there are linden trees there overhanging property lines. Technically, the purpose of the roads is to allow avs to move around using public land. Any decoration is secondary. I know many people want them paved so they can drive cars around, which is perfectly valid, but the Lindens don't seem to care about that these days. As for the trees, are you saying that trees on the road are overhanging into private property? If that is the case and it is bothering the landowner, they can submit a support ticket about it. Just make it brief and clear, like: "Parcel encroachment: Linden-owned tree overhanging into my property. Please remove tree at MyRegion 23,145,28." _____________________
