transportation routes
Paths for vehicles
Transportation routes are established paths for moving people or goods from one place to another—roads, railways, shipping lanes, flight corridors, and the like.
The term emphasizes the infrastructure and geography of travel rather than the vehicles themselves: The new highway opened up transportation routes through the mountains.
Strategic transportation routes have historically shaped trade, warfare, and settlement patterns.
