transit hubs
Transportation interchange locations
Transit hubs are central locations where multiple transportation routes or modes converge, allowing passengers to transfer between them.
A major airport serves as a transit hub for airlines; a downtown station may connect buses, trains, and subways.
The term emphasizes the node's role in a larger network: Chicago became a transit hub for rail freight.
Hub cities attract travelers passing through rather than just those whose journeys begin or end there.
