What are the effective range of buildings?

So clicking on each of the buildings and looking at all their details there doesn't seem to be any sign of effective range. Usually in games like this there's a green or red shaded area showing its effective range but I dont see that.

For those buildings that have a range it'll colour the roads you're placing it next to green to show how far it will be accessible. Union, harbourmaster and town hall all show a blue circle when building to show you the range they'll affect. Also note when building something any buildings whose services it would use that are in range will be highlighted

If you mean range to population, then I don't think that's a factor in game. But range to warehouses is highlighted by green roads, as archonsod said.

Do stone roads increase the effectiveness of police, firestation etc?

Stone roads increase the speed of things using the road. It also seems to extend effective range meaning a warehouse with stone roads around will have a wider operating range than one with just dirt tracks. That's what i've noticed in my game. Unless its a bug,which i doubt.

everything that uses roads is improved by stone roads, including electric power transmission

What about the range of the market? There's no way of telling how far it reaches without building your whole city first and clicking on the houses

I've just tested it as i've taken over most of the islands on the campaign and it seems standard dirt roads stretch to 24 houses long before it runs out of the marketplace influence.With stone roads it goes to 30.

That's going in one direction from the marketplace just to be clear.Not one influence side to the other.I suffer from deuteranopia (colour blindness) so take those sums as approximate with the influence range.
