ROAD Meaning and Definition

  1. A road refers to a primarily man-made pathway or route that provides access for vehicles, bicycles, pedestrians, or any other form of transportation to travel between two or more points. It is an interconnected network of lanes, paths, or tracks constructed with a smooth and firm surface to facilitate the movement of people or goods from one location to another. Roads are typically constructed and maintained by local or national authorities according to established guidelines and standards.

    Roads may vary in size, design, and materials, depending on their purpose and location. They can range from small and narrow rural roads to larger urban thoroughfares or multi-lane highways. In most cases, roads are marked with lane dividers, signs, and traffic signals to ensure safety and orderly flow of traffic.

    Roads can be categorized into different types, such as local roads, arterial roads, expressways, or toll roads, to distinguish their functionality or characteristics. They can also be named or numbered to provide easy navigation and identification.

    The construction and maintenance of roads involve various engineering techniques and practices, including grading, paving, and proper drainage systems. Roads play a vital role in transportation, connecting cities, towns, and communities, and they serve as essential infrastructure for economic development and social connectivity.

  2. A public way by which passengers, vehicles, and animals may pass from place to place; a highway; a journey.
