By the definition in your link, a 'road' would be between two cities, and the paths inside the city (where the buildings are) are 'streets'.

The expert is talking about removing the paved surfaces inside cities, so he is talking about 'streets', by your definition.

Apparently the expert uses different definitions from yours.

A road may also have buildings on either side though its main function is as a transportation route, a way of getting from one place to another, especially between towns.

Just for starter: "especially" does not mean "exclusively".
