Description

Roadworks instead of rooftops

While many Town sets show houses and shops, this one is about what happens in between: roads being built or repaired. Five minifigures make up the crew on site, and the vehicles and barriers bring some movement into a city layout. The theme works well for children because diggers, lorries and warning colours are instantly understood. If you already have a small LEGO® town, the roadworks can simply be set up next to it as an extra scene.

Yellow, black and two greys

The main colours are black, yellow, light grey and dark grey. Yellow is the classic colour of construction vehicles and warning signs, while black and grey stand for tarmac and machinery. That palette looks believable straight away, even without many stickers or special parts. With 317 pieces made up of 100 different parts, there is also enough variety in the build. The parts list on this page shows every variant with its colour and quantity if you want to fill gaps.

Who it suits

It is a typical play set for children who like moving vehicles and inventing stories, but also for collectors completing sets from the turn of the millennium. It is less of a display piece, because the appeal lies in rebuilding and playing. At a little over three hundred pieces the build is short enough for an afternoon and long enough to make unpacking worthwhile. Adults rebuilding an old town will find useful material here too.

Checking your collection

If your copy is incomplete or you only need a few parts, the parts list helps you count what is missing. Enter what you own and you will see the gaps. With “What can I build?” you can also find out which other sets you could put together from the bricks you already have. The many yellow and grey parts are especially versatile and can be reused for vehicles of your own, bridges or small industrial buildings.
