Dirt roads require no materials and no tools. They only need labor to be built. Therefore, these are usually the first roads used in a new town. Dirt roads are also the only type of roads that do not level the terrain where they are built.

Dirt slabs will raise and flatten the terrain to the elevation that the line crossing through the circle points to. To raise or lower a slab, you can use the arrow keys to turn the circle and select a different elevation. Caution should be used when placing dirt slabs on steep inclines, as it will raise the surrounding area - including the area under buildings or neighboring dirt slabs.
Because the dirt roads aren't as wide as the other road types, it can become difficult to upgrade to another type of road later. This has lead to some people refusing to use dirt roads altogether, expect in some minor places. Dirt road is also the only road type to not have lamp posts.

Dirt road slabs are however the same width as all other road slabs, so there is no worry about that apart from the aesthetics.

Concrete roads are exactly like asphalt roads, except they are lighter in color and don't require oil to build. They take only 1 stone, with a variable amount of labour based on how much leveling you need to do, and the length of the road. They are placed the same as [[#Dirt Road|dirt roads]].

Concrete slabs  placed alone will raise and flatten the terrain square to point the line crossing the circle is pointing to, similar to dirt slabs. You can use the arrow keys to turn this line and change the elevation.

Caution must be taken when lowering high areas, as creating a low area next to a high area with a large enough height difference between them will cause the ground to poke through and hide the low tile. This can only be fixed by adjusting the height of the entire area (either making the high area low or vice versa), as there is currently no way to recreate the natural slopes.

Pressurized roads are used on moonbases and other toxic atmospheres to allow citizens to work and live there, and to allow you to move around without an environment suit on. Pressurized roads are not needed for a colony because all buildings will come with their own dome including the flag. Dirt roads can be used instead.
Pressurized roads are most commonly used only in harsh environments, such as on [[moon]]s and other uninhabitable [[world]]s. The pressurized enclosure protects against harsh environments, allowing people to move around without [[Environment_Suit|environment suit]]s. Pressurized roads are not required in anyway, they are mostly used for convince or aesthetic purposes.
 
When built on planets with Atmospheres, these roads prevent spacecraft and vehicles from accumulating naturally damaging corrosion damage. They will always have the perfect mix of breath gas and air pressure for you to survive in any climate.
 
Haxus once stated they may cause crashing damage when a ship lands on them due to crashing through the glass.

Construction window's roads category.

Roads are required to place buildings within cities. The type of road makes no difference to the city once constructed, and buildings even function fine if the roads are removed afterwards.

After placing a road, the next road is started from the end of the previous road. This can be canceled by pressing the space key or re-selecting the road type in the construction window.

Roads in general require little labor to build, but slabs take additional labor to level the ground. Roads can be placed next to unfinished roads.

Road Slab

Road slabs, also simply known as slabs, are a move wide version of a road. They flatten the terrain to be even, elevating the terrain to the starting point of placement.

Road slabs are used for construction of vehicles and spacecraft, as well as functioning as an airport landing strip.

In order to make a road slab, use the mouse wheel or arrow keys while placing a road to toggle between road and road slab placement.

Road slabs prevent spacecraft with an officer or captain from environmental decay damage.
