Keep in mind destroying a milestone extension that is not an end point/disconnected from the trail requires a fair amount of strength, more than you probably have at the moment even when using a pickaxe to do it.
If your road is not taking you to where you expect it should, then there is a problem with the road. Either you have not completed the connection or the route is blocked at some point. So long as there is a full connection from Point A to Point B you can travel the entire distance even if there are blockages, you would simply have to continue at the next unblocked milestone in the path in that case. That's what the "waylaid" buff is, you get it when you travel on a road that does not reach its end point and it allows you to continue travelling on that same trail from any of the existing connection points.
To be honest though it sounds like your roads are messy and the simplest option may be to bash the 2nd main milestone you built and rebuild it so that it's not blocking anything, then reconnect the trails. Roads don't disappear once they are built unless the entire trail is destroyed, you can always reconnect them using existing trail milestones.
I find it helps to follow along the path with the walking option rather than fast travel, you can get a better idea of where the road may be running into issues like if your player bumps into anything along the way or if they simply stop because the route is disconnected at some point.
