TheWoWDBSeems bugged with the 9.0.1 level squish. Plans aren't dropping for my level 12. Must have the wrong level requirement to drop or something eventhough the zone is 10-50 in Chromie Time.
Edit: This is now fixed. The plans are dropping once again.

Kill an Honor's Stand Officer that pats the road on a horse, to get the roadway plans.
As of right now (7:40pm CST) they dropped for me. It seems they fixed it. Happy hunting guys!

Description
This bundle of papers was found in a leather satchel hidden under the officer's clothes. Battle maps of the region depict Honor's Stand, connected to what appears to be a large unfinished roadway crossing the Barrens all the way from Theramore. It looks like the Alliance plans to build a road from the coast straight into the heart of Kalimdor! Kilrok Gorehammer will want to see this.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Put the Fear in Them
Do you see the trail below us, <name>? That is MY trail. And if the Alliance dogs choose to use my trail, they'd best be looking over their shoulder. It's time to collect my toll! Slay the footsoldiers from Honor's Stand and see if we can't send them scurrying back to their walls.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Stalling the Survey
These maps have all been drawn by the same steady hand. I've seen a human surveyor heading up and down the road between the hold and the jungle to the east. We can set their plans back by making an example out of this surveyor, <name>.
