The invention discloses a sponge type road paving structure. Purified water transition areas are arranged on the two sides of a carriageway paving structure, then sidewalks are arranged, the carriageway paving structure is sequentially provided with a carriageway upper layer, waterproof bonding layers, a carriageway lower layer, a lower sealing layer and a water stabilizing base layer from top to bottom, and the purified water transition areas and a sidewalk paving structure are both of a layered composite structure. A 3-cm OGFC type road surface or 4-cm PA type road surface with the good permeability is adopted as the upper layer of a carriageway, therefore, the enough water permeability performance is guaranteed, and surface gathered water is effectively decreased; the waterproof bonding layers are arranged between the upper layer and the lower layer of the carriageway and on the side faces of the carriageway lower layer and the water stabilizing base layer, therefore, rainwater can be effectively prevented from infiltrating to the lower layer and the base layer, and the strength and durability of the road surface are guaranteed; the purified water transition areas are arranged between the carriageway and the sidewalks, road surface rainwater is purified and then flows into an accumulated water dispersing layer and a soil base layer, and therefore the accumulated water dispersing layer is prevented from being blocked by sludge in the water.
