footway

Paved walking strip

A footway is a path or paved area designated for pedestrians, particularly the portion of a road or street reserved for walking rather than vehicles.

The term is more common in British English and legal or planning contexts, where it often refers specifically to a sidewalk or pavement: The council approved repairs to the footway along High Street.
