Road Builder Mod
Road Builder Mod lets players lay down realistic roads in a Fabric world using a set of road marking blocks that are sprayed onto the ground.
What it does
The mod is built around one job: making roads that look like roads, without having to combine the obscure vanilla blocks that are normally used for that effect. It adds two road marking blocks, one white and one yellow, each with its own spray sprite. The blocks are found in the creative inventory in the building blocks section, at the bottom of the scroll list, and a drag from the hotbar sprays them after the creative menu is closed.
The blocks also act as ordinary blocks in a sense the author describes as complete: they do not carry redstone signals, but they can be placed and arranged in long runs. The author notes that the mod adds two features overall and describes its current state as an early alpha. Work on a road-building mechanism, similar to the one in Cities: Skylines, is listed as a future plan, along with a node system that snaps new segments to existing roads. The mod requires Fabric API and Fabric Loader, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.21.1 and 1.21.2, and the latest file is 0.0.1 for 1.21.2.

How it compares
UK Roads is a closed Fabric mod with All rights reserved, published for 1.19 – 1.19.4, so it covers older releases. Common Roads spans Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 1.16.5 – 26.1.2 under All rights reserved, which is the broadest loader and version coverage of the three. Road Builder Mod itself is not open source, so it has no public source code to read.

What the author says
Currently, this mod adds 2 new features; a white road marking block and a yellow road marking block. This means that it is very much in alpha progress. This mod allows a decent recreation of the world's roads in a seemless manner without having to use debugged or obscure vanilla blocks to create the look of a road.
