Steam would be run with wood to start with; Banzu isn't a huge fan of having to take care of Pokémon. Fuel is the big downside to steam; the equivalent for sail is that if the wind ain't blowin' you ain't movin'. Neither method's perfect.
The pathway (which unless someone intervenes would be called "Route 1") is one of the few things that Banzu might work on himself, simply for his own benefit, but at this stage he'll try to leave it to everyone else to deal with.
My thought for the pathway is that it would be a marked trail with trees and bushes removed and a Scyther brought in every so often to keep the tall grass down. If bikes ever exist here you could ride them, but it wouldn't be a paved road or anything like that. If Melaka had (a lot of) time to kill she could probably make it herself, but help would be ideal. If needed I could throw Apollo at it to plot out a route that didn't run straight through every predator's territory.
