IMHO, two reasons, like deer the path of least resistance and vision. Can see up and down road real clear and easy to travel. Second, if he can see she can see him strutting, probably using it to strut for hens that might venture along that path of least resistance!

RE: Roads

I agree with JL turkeys are just like us they are lazy and like the lest resitance kind of trail and paths. They also might be using this spot as a dusting area.
