Creating a Colony

[Adagio]

I never built any colonies back when I had Civ3 installed. Most of the time it just wasn't usefull

To putthis one to bed and answer my own question, I have confirmedthat you cannot buid a colony on a resource that already has a road. The "Colony To" works very much like "Road To", but again, you cannot already have a road on the colony.

Colony bonus: if you put a worker on the resource (without a road) and press the Colony button, you get both a colony and the road on the square simultaneously.
