Just create a while-loop, which calls the spline at an interval
derived from the while-counter, and place the object there.

For a mesh, you'd have to either take two splines (one for
each edge of the road) or use one spline, but using the
position derived therefrom only as basis, so you'd actually
add a little amount for the right edge and subtract a little
for the left edge.

Hope this gives you a good impression of what I mean, I'm
in a hurry, but'll explain more in detail when you post a
specific question and when I have the time.
