How to connect roads without overlapping outlines

WolfR

Hi,

I am just beginning to use CC3, so this is probably a silly newbie question. However, I couldn't find an answer to my simple problem yet.
I am drawing a system of roads (streets) with intersections and crossroads. I use a road type of 3 units width. As the roads meet or cross, the outlines overlap which does not look good (see attached drawing). I guess there must be an easy way to "merge" the roads so that the overlapping is not visible.
Any hint would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Wolf.

I would say Networks is your solution. Can't say for sure because I've never used them but I'm reasonably certain this sort of thing is just what they were created for. Someone will be along momentarily to tell me if I'm right or not.

Hmmm. Have you tried using the On and Intersection tools on the right side of CC3 ?

Also, you could draw the town/city secondary roads in brown. And then draw the main roads in a gray or cobblestone look and put the main roads crossing over the top of the secondary roads.
