I need to screen a garden from a road, but not with a hedge, i was

Any suggestions?

Viburnum tinus would be spectacular, but you'd want to start with pretty
big plants, no? Or maybe it grows fast under more favourable
circumstances than I've seen.
How about something like Elaeagnus x ebbingei? I have one that's yellow
and green variegated, it's a good grower and makes a thick screen.
