You shouldn't have to. It is set by default by vim. In a running vim instance do
:echo &runtimepath

It doesn't need to exist. And it's certainly useless if empty. Only
create it if you need it.

Owned by root does not mean that you can't READ the files. Vim doesn't
need to do anything except read them, and it can.
I guess I'm confused as to where you installed your plugins. It's
typically best to install them in ~/.vim/ rather than system wide
