How To Build MILS Straight Road & City Update

In this video, I provide an easy-to-follow step-by-step process on how to build a LEGO straight road on a MILS Plate! Combine the new road plates, a standard baseplate. plates, tiles, bricks, and manically you have something that looks amazing. We end up building six of them and placing them all in the LEGO city!

Hi I am struggling to understand which parts I need on the side to make the mill plates Could you make a list of specifics

[@DieterSmeets]

Can you share part list for making the road wider? Thank you!

[@jrecoop]

Yes please new to this and would love that

[@dicloniusgames]

These MILS plates make the city feel more life like instead of the roads and sidewalks being flat and just there. I hope it all comes together when you put in the light fixtures, lamp posts and other things you had before converting to MILS.

[@RW-zh7kl]

Accept for the part of them being smooth and shiny. They could mold them without a shiny surface.

[@randomusernameCallin]

@@RW-zh7kl Try get a fine sanding paper a higher number and try softly sanding it.

[@brickbro1993]

Pretty cool design for the new mils system. At first the new road plates got alot of bad feedback but I think their great, and the city is gonna look 10x better! Also their pretty good for converting to mils.

[@nobonesaboutit7639]

Bricksie, try using the 8x4 sloped pieces that come with the road plates as driveways. Good use for those parts 👍

[@tillywallenstein]

The look of the new road plates really grew on me. They look way more elegant and sleek. MILS is a fun system that gives you a lot of options. The pieces you need though...

[@Bestdiscoverlego2.0]

This is extremly cool but I am trying to find out where the instructions are on the turning MILS. But keep up the great work!

[@vincentgiasson7551]

Watching my favorite hockey team is painfull these days. GO HABS GO😭😭😭

[@timsot]

Hi everyone, how long are the white plates for the road extension part ?

[@carnagerush8138]

Will these roads accommodate the 8 stud wide speed champion cars?

[@Dinothedinosaur-dv8ix]

BRCICKSIE GUESS WHAT! I GOT BOUTIQUE HOTEL

[@wheresvr6]

I think there is one tweak needed. You used illegal building technique attaching line&widening assembly with technic bricks, using 1×1 headlight bricks (partnum 4070) seems like a proper way to do it. Considering that mils roadplates will stay assembled for long periods of time that could be a pretty serious flaw I believe

[@ethanorenstein9051]

Love seeing the Blackhawks beat the 2 best players in the world Connor and Leon

[@ryangann799]

Yep! Connor Mcdustpan

[@snowfoot4902]

I think something that could improve the city better is to not have everything flat, to give it more of a natural look, and adding maybe mountains to have a more detailed look.

[@jeffschwingel5898]

How do you make the white lines?

[@thecorinthianguy]

I started on my first modular yesterday (Bookshop) and built a MILS for the base. It's SO solid and stable! Thanks, Bricksie!

[@deathstorm4954]

Whoa I am one of the first to comment

[@cslaterr3]

the MILS are such a great building technique, well done Bricksie! it really does make the lego city alot more realistic. it makes it looks alot better, too!

[@teebird8629]

I challenge you bricksie to Zone Out your Lego city like the building/zoning department. Lol love the new mills.

[@01Roberto]

Hey Bricksie this videos about the rebuiding of the LEGO City are the best in the channel! Great project!

[@legoboy7374]

Thank you very much for this review. 🤩👏Because of it l could to build unbeliev Lego city.🥰🤟

[@GregJH]

Looks fantastic. I can see how cities become addictive (and expensive!). Looking forward to the next update!

[@Ajeje_Brazorf-YT]

5:59 😏

[@grandadmiralquack289]

Would be cool if we could get a parts list, i'm trying to gather how many pieces are needed for a single MILS so i can do a parts order, but having a hard time. Bricksie can you help us please, thanks friend!

[@AlexKuhr]

It is truly the beginning of the MILS era! Can't wait to see the end result, when all building and roads are converted, plus details! Keep up the good wotk and I would love to see more videos of these plates being made and placed

[@RPhillip]

Tsk tsk tsk...no bike lanes! So car-centric!! Just kidding, I'm just starting my own city and really enjoy your tutorials/content. I would imagine you could create a bike lane by putting the white plate on the other side of the bricks?

[@lapislazulicentral3529]

I did the math on pick a brick and it takes roughly $26 for one MILS plate excluding the road set

[@wesleymitchell1282]

You are gonna teach us how to build the other one's right?

[@Bricksie]

Yes!

[@wesleymitchell1282]

YAY!!!! thanks I love your video's.😁

[@markgarrick2585]

excellent skills building class - did u meantion drop curbs and the parking bays im guessing that there are many differences from uk street curbs etc compared to driveways etc where u are any advice or helpful build tips would be appreciated - im hunting thru to find possibe methods

[@Sadler_bricks]

I do luke the new road plates allows for more realistic and creativity of ones city. Nice video. Sadler_bricks

[@Ebbybuddy]

Love your stuff man - but you did a poor job explaining the curb strip and also the solid light gray edge

[@SharpeysWorld]

i just dont like them, the curved aspect doesnt look great. i dont know why lego havent done curved roads

[@ryangann799]

You have to admit the curves just look crapy. It’s a straight and 90’ system only

[@tytinn9141]

Would you be willing to link the mils rebrickabke corner/t guide you used?

[@zander117_yt]

a question brother what are the measurements of the base that goes to the bottom?

[@garrettcimina487]

I just want to know where to get a bazillion tiles for doing so much sidewalk.

[@tegan48afol19]

they do look amazging and im selling my old road plates after watching your video as you can also run led wire for buildings or street lamps

[@guleri]

I like how you make the drains, that is absolutely a plus for the MILS system that you can do that. Also like that you put a grille on top as well so water can pour down from the sidewalks as well as the roads. I think you have a good solution for the turns, but still they look a little weird but I think it is the best way to do it when using MILS plates. Thanks for the step-by-step.

[@edwardlees4585]

What are you doing with all the old road base plates? Can you not use them and put the MILS plate on top?

[@MR-SINISTER76]

I got a question i want to build a full scale lego city some day would this road system work for doing that

[@alanhoyland5438]

Great video. have to appreciate the time going into these plates. Will looking amazing though once all done.

[@legobuildert909]

But i dont have enough tiles to make these mils plates. Should i order the pieces?

[@messy_mika7878]

3:53 what is the color name of those 1x4s? Just gray or?

[@willnthewoods]

What about rail crossing on a Mil plate with the new road plates??

[@ARTECH19]

can you pls create a part list to upload to Brinklink pls?

[@kristofferkoster5540]

What no handicapt ramps at the street corners?? 🤣🤣🤣

[@grindingbricks]

I've mentionned it before but... price the 16x16 road plates on Bricklink and all the tiles needed on PAB... and you"ll find the purchase of road plate set is redundant and much more expensive than making your own kit, especially with the size of your city.

[@anthonyrobinson3514]

PlaysTion just put out a video on their Horizon Lego set coming out in May can’t wait for the game this week looks absolutely amazing!

[@anthonyrobinson3514]

Playstation

[@TouchOfArsenal98]

Is there a parts lists for this? Thank you

[@Fred026]

Those are amazing

[@Regelos]

What is the long white strip made out of?

[@Avad54]

I will definitely be using those in my city it looks so good!!

[@ongweishian4211]

where to buy this kind of board?

[@TheMystrix]

Will you heart me?

[@brandonharris7516]

Wow

[@connora03]

Parts list? Would love to build

[@ilizki]

I have noticed many times that you are an Oilers fan. What do you think about Jesse ”the bison king” puljujärvi? Love your videos and the city upgrades so far. Keep on the good work! 💪🏻 Greetings from finland. 😊

[@lovebebeto8979]

Hi Jordan, thank you for sharing the methods of building this MILS road plate. It looks so cool! However I am not sure about connecting a 1x2 technic brick and a 1x2 plate. Do they fit well or too tired? I am concerned that the 1x2 plate might stress the holes of 1x2 technic brick too much. Could you please let me know your thoughts? Thanks.

[@brianp6859]

I think this is an "illegal" building technique. I was watching another video and you can put something in 1 of the holes but a plate across two holes doesn't quite line up right and could damage the pieces over time. That being said there are many lego pieces that could achieve the same or similar effect

[@lovebebeto8979]

@@brianp6859 agreed

[@jackwhelan6027]

Happy valentine's day

[@chriskaufmann655]

I love the way your recent timelapses have looked!! I'm not sure if youve been doing anythihng differently, but they almost look like stop-motion (which is very fitting for LEGO)!

[@stubusby7818]

Hi Bricksie, I wonder how you plan on marrying the light gray sidewalk of your MILS roads to the dark gray sidewalks of your modulars. Will you leave them as 2 different grays or will you convert all your modular sidewalks to matching light gray?

[@gamingandrandomshit]

Can i get a parts number list?

[@doufmech4323]

Do you have the 10190 Market Street Modular building?

[@CodeRedCollections]

You should put black one by two plates under the sidewalk drains so you can’t see gray underneath!

[@dceasedbrickfan74]

I did something like this for a helicopter(Black widow set) landing pad. I really like the new road plates. Chubby uses them to build mech bays. Cool stuff.

[@cranklabexplosion-labcentr8245]

Y’all need to get some Mini Z’s for this road.

[@nolanhunt2011]

Those roads are the perfect size for mini z’s

[@TwoDollarTuesday]

Who designed these

[@aviknash06]

Love the mils system but it's really expensive here in Singapore. Rather buy sets and the old road plates!

[@kking3429]

Happy birthday

[@kengkoy.]

Video suggestion: make a whole shelf braisd of marvel sets and make a vid about it. I really wanna see more marvel content from you :)

[@ryleyw3684]

Looks great placed in the city, I'm just wondering what is the size of the Starlite drawers you have, I was doing some part sorting with my extra pieces stash and parted out a star wars set I bought the other day mainly for the figs (the main build was just Darth muals throne thing). I have a master craft stand up drawers and one Starlite drawer but I was looking at it and then seeing a drawer on your table in the time lapse yours looks bigger.

[@AlexGonzalez-rk8cu]

you should look into the MOC the flower around the corner by knob van brick for next to the town hall it’s a corner modular on a 16x32

[@jackwhelan6027]

Hello Jordan 😄

[@futcharlton]

Great work love these vids. Keep then coming pls❤

[@futcharlton]

Also can u make another vid on the zoo soon? Elliot

[@cyberi4a]

Sounds like you do need to be creative to make road plates for certain buildings like you were mentioning, but those road places allow for that it seems.

[@betsyschumann1244]

Great video - can you please show us how to make the curved corner mils road plate? Would be awesome if you could. thanks -

[@chriskonnick8867]

This video is awesome and beyond helpful - thanks! Does anyone know if there is a part list for this design?

[@mister_bleeps]

I'd love to see a video on making the curved road piece. I couldn't find anything on rebrickable as clean as yours.

[@willemplugge950]

You can also make a parking lot or something on the baseplate that is in front of the town hall! (sorry for my bad English)

[@Jeff-rr5rz]

My thoughts coming from the point of view of a civil designer is that the bricks outside of the white paint line should be light grey to represent the concrete curb & gutter and next to the curb I would but a green landscape strip between the sidewalk and curb.

[@rmzt100]

Love your videos 👍

[@efenili]

I feel like in the turns and interactions you don't need the center white lines? Would be cleaner if the intersections (that had cross walks) and turns were just all grey and had no white lines in them. Otherwise, this has been really fun to watch as you upgrade the city!!

[@belindaslomp1253]

How do you make your building the same height? Thank you for the info I’m going to use this to make my roads

[@edwardlavierijr8568]

Your MILS plate approach is great. Mine are similar with the addition of a bike path on both sides of the road. We want to promote a low carbon footprint in our city.

[@spentheplug]

Let’s go

[@ThecrackedBrick93]

Thanks Jordan , have got stuck with part of my city so this is a great idea

[@МаксимШабуров-ч6с]

Сколько интересно это всё стоит?

[@willgeer9856]

Bricksie, I have seen others leave gaps in the edges to run wires for lights. You considering lighting the city?

[@JHSthirteen]

You should buy the road plates on bricks and pieces so it costs less

[@BigNick3.1]

Looks great. City has grown so much since I subscribed 2 years ago!

[@BrokenBoneBricks]

Bricksie i had an idea for the city, i thought it would be funny to put any color of plates coming out of the sewer part of the road in front of the ghost busters hq so it looks like ooze is coming out of the sewer!

[@t1d651]

This video is really helping me decide how to redo my city. Now I just need a better budget

[@Tallus08]

I love the MILS content. It's a fun project I hope to do myself one day. Thanks for the great videos!

[@BenHannaNZ]

Could you potentially try a transparent 1x6 plate under the rain water grate? So you could see under to the other drain? These new plates look like a huge step up in looks compared to the old ones.

[@leeprice2849]

Lego needs to expand on this new road plate system with some kind of angled version.

[@georgealves9736]

This might be tough for me because I don’t have all these pieces.

[@thevinylcollector3472]

awesome video jordan the mils plates look amazing in the lego city

[@timothybeien3559]

Are you going to slant down your sidewalks at the crosswalks?

[@meretheedvardsen1519]

i think your design is good but tomorow i am doing to build a custom roadplate
