Well, the thing is, there is no curb. This is a giant model and that's the shoulder of the road which curves quite a bit and often. I cant add geometry as there is no curb in the CAD file.

Would this have to be driven by functions maybe?

I think I either have to have multiple layers of textures (for the road I'd have the shoulder material underneath the darker concrete and then set the darker concrete to fade to transparency when near edges, thus showing the lighter concrete.) Problem is I cant find a function to drive this. I wish there was a Distance to Edge function like I created
foam on a beach with (Distance to Object Below).

I have to be precise, so I cant do the distribution map.

Any other ideas?
