What is a "branch"?
A branch is a smaller road or path that splits off from a main road or trail. It typically serves as a secondary route and may lead to a less traveled or less important location. Branches can be found in both rural and urban areas, offering access to neighborhoods, small towns, or specific destinations. While not as frequently used as the main roads, branches play an important role in providing alternative routes and connecting different areas.
