truck routes

Commercial vehicle corridors

Truck routes are designated roads approved for commercial truck traffic, typically marked with signs showing weight limits and clearances.

Cities use truck routes to channel heavy vehicles away from residential areas and streets with low bridges or tight turns: Take the truck route around downtown.

The term also refers to the paths truckers regularly drive between destinations.
