runway - from where the plane departure n land, its specially just for that also it have small lights on it so at night the pilot can recognaize it

roadway - in the sky where the plane flies, the route of the plane

I took aeronautical engineering and i've never heard the term roadway used to describe a flight path.

I think the question was what is the difference between a runway and regular road pavement maybe in terms of materials and techniques used to build it.

dyna2001 agrees: Yes that's right

mani_jeddah: I am in the field, but i guess it depends where you live

dyna2001: I dont really know specifics but runways are built from steel re-inforced concrete, roads are made with a concrete base with ashphalt over it... anything more than that you'll have to look up.

Clearly you misunderstood my intent by asking if you'd done your research. My asking isn't wrong. All you had to do was answer my question.
This site can and does provide much help to many people, but we're not going to "pave" the way if you don't want to be at least a little bit more understanding. Frankly, I don't care what aspect of airport work you do. If this is outside your realm, you will need to do more research to determine if any of the things you read here or elsewhere are correct and accurate before you can speak knowledgably.
But, it this is how you want to operate, I hope you have a difficult time.
