Hehe, I built these. Thanks for posting my MOCs. Our club was already using a similar standard for about 2 years now. What I don't like about the CC modules is that the baseplate is part of the building and it sticks out 8 studs on the sides. I decided to give it a try, though. I still don't know how the should be built... If we use road baseplates, they will add more width to the pavement which is already 8L. I will add all my future CC buildings here: http://www.mocpages.com/folder.php/14643
Thank you for your message. I'm finding it tricky too. I guess if you look at a real road the width of the pavement changes. I'm intending to build a square rather than a straight road.
I'm glad you don't mind your MOCs being here - they really are amazing. Please feel free to post my models too.
"I still don't know how the should be built..." - I left out the word "road". :-) For my own purposes, I will use this: http://www.maj.com/gallery/MALUG/Misc/rb.jpg I build 32W houses but it can be used for 16W houses as well. I built a mini diorama to demonstrate it. (Each stud is a 4x4 area) http://www.maj.com/gallery/MALUG/Misc/ccmini.jpg IMHO it is a fairly simple and cheap method. For community CC events each cc-module owner/builder could bring the roadmodules with her/him. Roadmarks such as pedestrian crossing patterns can be built using smaller tiles. A narrow street would use 1 row (16L) of these, a wider street would use 2 rows (32L). I don't have many vehicles yet but I prefer 6W and 8W so I need room for them.
