You should first use Google Earth to create a kml file. You won't get vector lines from Google map as input.

There's no way to get the road data that Google uses into FME.

Hi @gogopotter90, you could try using OpenStreetMap, which is an open source community built dataset that contains road data in it.

Alternatively, local universities and city open data portals are also great resources for geospatial datasets (and usually road datasets).
