Each paving plate has a rubber covering, and a plurality of hollow steel pipes arranged in such a way as to bear a predetermined load and embedded in the rubber. Projections provided at both sides of each paving plate are engaged in the recessed portions of the rails. The projections are formed with holes extending parallel to the rails and fitted with packings. Further, a plurality of second paving plates are placed at the outer sides of the pair of rails. They are arranged in the same manner and have the same construction as those placed between the rails. Each of the second paving plates has a projection provided at one side thereof near the respective rail and engaged with the rail.
