SIDEWALKSIDEWALKFrom Wikipedia
A sidewalk, or pavement, footpath, footway, and sometimes
platform, is a path along the side of a road. A sidewalk may
accommodate moderate changes in grade (height) and is
normally
separated from the vehicular section by a curb. There may also
be a
road verge (a strip of vegetation, grass or bushes or trees or
acombination of these) either between sidewalk and the roadway
or
between the sidewalk and the boundary.
In some places, the same term may also be used for a paved
path,
trail or footpath that is not next to a road, for example, a
paththrough a park.

CONCLUSIONCONCLUSION
On sidewalks, the unexceptional has behoove equated
more the institute, and the chilly accentuation of the
contribute to has been a forbiddance functioning rather
than an expansive one.
As urbanites adopted cars and municipal engineers
envisioned public works, unobstructed mobility focused
on these marvelous moving machines. In the decades
that followed, people continued to make claims for
promenading, public speaking, expression of dissent,and street
vending as well as a host of other activities on
the sidewalks.
