Don't have time to watch that tutorial.
To get what you want:
Set up a layer structure with layers for the small streets and the large streets each.
On these layers put the paths accordingly.
No fill, no stroke on the paths.
In the appearance panel create strokes for the layers
Apply the white strokes to the layers each
Apply the Effect > Path > Outline stroke
Then create a new layer
Put the streets layers into the new layer as sub layers
Create a stroke to the new layer
Apply black color to the stroke
Move the stroke below the "Contents" in the appearance panel.
