uneven pavement
Bumpy walking surface
Uneven pavement refers to road or sidewalk surfaces with irregular height, texture, or condition—cracks, bumps, potholes, or sections that have shifted or settled.
Warning signs alert pedestrians to uneven pavement where they might trip.
The phrase appears in legal contexts when someone sues after a fall: She claimed the uneven pavement caused her injury.
