As compared to walking on unpaved dirt, walking on rigid pavement is easier, and less dirt sticks to your shoes, especially when it has been raining and the dirt road gets muddy.

Nothing would stay still. Without friction you cannot stand, let alone walk. The easiest way to think of it is comparing walking on ice and walking on pavement. Ice has a smoother surface than pavement, for good reason; the ice has less friction due to that smooth surface, so you cannot 'grip' the ground with your foot/boot/shoe etc. However the pavement is designed to be bumpy, textured so that you can find purchase when walking, even if it is wet.
Thermal insaltion
The air above the pavement is very hot and reflects light differently than cooler air making it appear as if there is water on the road.
Yes, of course you can, but that pavement can get extremely hot. I went there barefoot but I wore sandals some of the time because the pavement was just too hot in May.
No one is quite sure how a bird can walk on hot pavement without burning its feet. Theories suggest there are no blood vessels or nerves running to the feet.
I found a source that said hot rolled pavement weighed approx. 2300 kb/m^3
