travel corridor
Designated movement path
A travel corridor is a designated route or zone where movement is permitted between locations, especially when surrounding areas are restricted.
The term gained prominence during the COVID-19 pandemic for agreements allowing quarantine-free travel between regions with similar infection rates: The UK established travel corridors with several European countries.
More broadly, it can describe any established pathway for transit—wildlife corridors, humanitarian corridors for refugees, or transportation routes connecting major hubs.
