I would question the motives of any elves agreeing to build roads for
humans through forest, even when the forest in now held by humans. And
even if they do, and for dwarves, I would expect them to pay much better
attention to craftsmanship and detail than their human counterparts would.
So I would expect them to take just as long, but to produce a
higher-quality product (which probably doesn't make much difference to
most humans).
Don't have my Rulebook handy for answering most of your other questions,
so...

I generally play that that is the number that may ORIGINATE in the
province, and a like number may TERMINATE in the province from other
provinces, but there's folks who differ in that opinion on the list.
