Americans wouldn't know WTF you were talking about if you used the word "pavement". To them, "pavement" is the road surface.

A pavement is a term used for a road, foot way or any other hard standing structure. The correct term is footway or footpath, it's actually quite funny as I had this conversation in work a few days ago where the Principal Engineer says "who the hell calls a footway a pavement".

[Hardy]

Who the hell ever called a pavement or footpath a 'footway'?

[Tony Baloney]

Who the hell ever called a pavement or footpath a 'footway'?

Apart from a Highways Engineer, nobody.
