What I want to know is did the squids use the chalk roads or did the squids become the chalk roads.
It is said that eons ago, a wise and benevolent squid elder named Ozymandias possessed the power to manipulate the very essence of chalk.
When the squid community faced a perilous migration across treacherous terrains, Ozymandias would emerge from the depths and lay down chalk roads, imbued with his magical ink, to guide his fellow squids safely to their destination. These chalk roads glowed with an ethereal blue light, illuminating the darkest depths of the ocean.
As time passed, the squids would harness the power of Ozymandias’ magical ink to transform themselves temporarily into living chalk roads. By intertwining their arms and tentacles, they would create a network of living paths on the ocean floor, allowing other marine creatures to traverse great distances with ease.

great story!
This is waaaaay to simple of a depiction of modern roads. Modern infrastructure is super complex, with roads going down meters with many different layers and components.
I would recommend the Practical Engineering YouTube channel to get some insight in how complex our modern infrastructure actually is. Things that seem so simple on the surface are often really complex.
Also: roads aren’t designed for cars, they are designed for super heavy big vehicles carrying tons of materials. If the road can handle those, the cars don’t really matter all that much.

I guess many roads are hundreds, if not thousands of years old. There are not many reasons to change the position of an established road, e.g. between cities, so I think the main roads that connect them often started as trails between villages and where upgraded according to the needs of the people. The junction in your city next to your city hall may have been an important trading spot before the middle ages already.

Well, for once, Eridu is gone now.
