industrial corridor

Factory zone stretch

An industrial corridor is a geographic zone, often along a highway, railway, or waterway, where manufacturing plants, warehouses, and related businesses concentrate.

The corridor shape follows transportation infrastructure that enables movement of goods and workers: the industrial corridor stretching from Chicago to Detroit.

Urban planners designate such corridors for economic development and zoning purposes.
