Dirt Roads/Paved Roads

Are single hex paved roads only two lanes? Or can they mean more than two lane?

The reason I ask is because when I was playing just now the map I was using had a single "dirt road" that went straight through a LA style city grid! It was incongruous to see a single "dirt road" cut through a urban area composed modern city blocks, all of which were paved.

I realize that the road type is just eye candy but "knowing" will make me enjoy the game more.

If you actually hovered the mouse over one you would see it reported as a "Secondary Road". Not Earth , gravel, Land Rover track etc.

Roads all have infinite number of lanes in the SP universe, subject only to stacking costs. That is why there is no reportage of the number of lanes, and no mention of the subject anywhere at all.

I know they are termed "Secondary Roads", trust me I own a mouse. I was simply asking if inside the SP universe they are considered hard surfaced. If they are hard surfaced why is the graphic "dirt".
