Default Topo sidewalks

Just a general question on modeling in autocad.

I know how to setup a topo terrain from cad to viz but have never figured out how to model streets and specially sidewalks that follow the contour of the terrain...

Any suggestions...

THX!!!

The glue tool is pretty handy. Use glue on 2d polylines, it will drop the lines onto your 3d geometry. Yo can the use these lines as paths for lofts. Lofts are great for sidewalks/kerbs etc because the mapping follows the loft, rather than getting your uvwknickers in a twist.
