I am using LineGeometry, LineMaterial to create a Line2 mesh object. I am currently using vertex colors. Is it possible to apply a texture to a Line2
For context:
Unfortunately, no. Wide lines do not support textures, see:

You can use Meshline to achieve that. It’s somewhat similar to Line2 but not in the core THREE. Note, however, that it’s lacking a bit behind because of lack of active maintainers. There is a branch here that works with Three 132.

With the method I used to build the road, you can also create thin lines with texture.

Thanks for the helpful pointers guys,
Have you used this? I am trying to use the branch but none of the demos work.
Yes, I’m currently using this in a project. Made a dead simple example that shows a meshline with a texture here: https://turquoise-flossy-celery.glitch.me (remix here). It’s dead simple: just draws a meshline and applies a texture. But it shows that it works.
I finally got it to work. I had to edit the MeshLine code that had a bug handling BufferGeometry. I have it in my own branch now.
I also found it does not handle CanvasTexture properly. It does not recognize rotated UVs
