Answer 3

That depends on your definition. A street is, as far as I'm aware, traditionally the road outside houses or connecting areas within a town and this applies whether it is metalled(Tarmaced) or not. A road, however is a route TO somewhere, and, again, does not have to be metalled to exist. For example, the road to Bath from London, the old A4, existed a long time before petrol engines and Tarmac but it was called the Bath Road. DowningStreet, again in London, is the row of houses built by a property speculator called Downing and goes nowhere, although it links Horse Guards' Parade and Whitehall. It was Downing Street well before modern road surfaces. So, streets as thus identified, are necessary, and exist because houses do, whether they're called streets or anything else.
