No do to the concrete settling the concrete on top would split
Concrete is what you make a sidewalk from. To make concrete, you mix Portland cement, sand, gravel (aggregate) and water. The cement holds the aggregate together.
The useful life of a sidewalk typically ranges from 20 to 40 years, depending on factors such as materials used, environmental conditions, and maintenance practices. Concrete sidewalks generally last longer than asphalt ones, while weather extremes and heavy traffic can accelerate wear. Regular maintenance, including repairs and cleaning, can help extend the lifespan of a sidewalk.
Okay, so think about it. If a sidewalk was not built with cracks in it, then eventually weathering and erosion would cause cracks anyway. Then, whenever it rained, rainwater would get in the cracks. Stay with me now! If the temperature then dropped below the freezing point (32 degrees F, 0 degrees C), then the water in the cracks will freeze. When water freezes, it expands, which would exert pressure on the sidewalk, eventually causing the sidewalk to further crack or even split in two! If a sidewalk already has minimal, purposefully placed cracks in it, then the damage can be minimized.

These differences reflect variations in terminology between the two dialects.
"Footpath" and "sidewalk" are terms used interchangeably in many regions, but there's no significant difference between them. Both refer to pedestrian pathways alongside roads, providing safe walking spaces.
