"Whose road is it?"

Translation: De quem é a estrada?

[kcmurphy]

Is "a estrada é de quem?" acceptable or weird to native ears?

[Joanne394981]

I have the same question. Is tgere anyone who can answer please?

[YannickAko]

Why not "cuja estrada é" ?

[Paulenrique]

"cuja" is used in subordinate clauses.

De quem estrada é? Why didn't it accept my answer???

[Janpot]

You are talking about a specific road so I don't think it's not possible to leave out the definite article "a".

To see how strange it is without it, try taking "the" out of "to whom belongs the road?". In English the define article is "imbedded" in "whose".
