The difference between 道 and 丁 I was told that 道「みち」 and 丁「ちょう」 both mean street. Is this true? And if so, what is the difference between them? If not, what do they really mean?

道「みち」:A road where people or cars pass by. 丁目「ちょうめ」: A lane or an alley. But it should no be called 「丁」 I think 「道」is used wider than 「丁目」. 丁「ちょう」 represents this meanings: 1.the page of paper. 2.the even number. 3.tofu 1丁(for example...) The other. 丁「てい」:1.the fourth. 2.a falimy name(amost in china)

"丁" isn't used as a meaning of "way" or "road" now.
