    Trailblazer, groundbreaker or pathfinder would also have been options in English, at least are close synonyms for pioneer. All have similarities but more literal , I’ve never heard roadbreaker in English, but you never know what they say in places like Australia, probably a"whackaroo".

    Groundbreaker might possibly originate from farming/ploughing or construction in new territory rather than literally making a road. But might be more apt for the OP.

      Huh, I never heard of whackaroo before (neither did my keyboard app)!

      It’s a non-English one, and we “break” the “road” (also path) when we cut a path in the forest.

        oh, i really don’t think “whackaroo” is a real word, i just made it up as an example of the type of thing theyd’ come up as a word in Australian-English, they have crazy ones down there.
