Paved streets are roadways that have a hard surface made from materials like asphalt or concrete. These surfaces provide a smooth and durable area for vehicles and pedestrians to travel on, improving safety and accessibility. Paved streets are commonly found in urban areas, where they help manage traffic flow and reduce dust and mud. The process of paving involves preparing the ground, laying down a base layer, and then applying the top surface. Paved streets can also include features like curbs, sidewalks, and drainage systems to enhance functionality and maintain the road's condition over time.
