There is a lot of information on this forum concerning this.
Do a search using the keywords "mesh"," terrain", "roads in mesh".

I am assuming you would like a ridge running down the center of the sidewalk setting the corners lower. Select your mesh making sure you have the mesh tool selected. click on each of the corners selecting the 'Z' Tool in the pop-up menu. You can also add nodes on the edges and set the 'Z' height for these higher than the outside corners. Hope this is clear.

Also, on a simple mesh like this, it helps to work in a 3d axonometric view. Create all the nodes you need in plan view first. Then go to 3d. Select the object, click on a node and select the z-height from the pest palette. Watch the z value in the coordinate menu. Input the new z directly from there for accuracy.
