Paths

A crosswalk is a marked place where people can safely cross a road. It helps drivers know where to expect people on the road. Crosswalks are usually found near schools, parks, and busy streets. They may have white lines on the ground, signs, or traffic lights. Some crosswalks have buttons for pedestrians to change the light.

A lane is a narrow street. Sometimes lanes run behind houses and there are only back doors opening onto the lane, not front doors.

A railroad is made from two rails laid parallel to each other. The rails are usually fixed to wooden or concrete sleepers. Railroads are especially made for trains to travel along.

A road is a long, flat, hard place that vehicles like cars and trucks drive on. Roads connect towns and cities to one another. Roads can be thousands of kilometers long, and be made of hard asphalt, concrete, or just dirt.

A sidewalk, also called a footpath or sometimes a pavement, is a place for people to walk. Sidewalks are usually a thin strip of concrete between people's houses or shops and the road. Cars are not allowed to drive on the sidewalk.
