transit area
Passage waiting space
A transit area is a zone where people pass through rather than remain—airport terminals, train station concourses, border crossings.
In networking, it's an OSPF routing area that carries traffic between other areas without originating or terminating it.
The term emphasizes movement and temporariness: Passengers waited in the transit area for their connecting flight.
