What is a "business route"?
A business route is a road or highway that serves as a more direct or convenient path through a town or city, often running parallel to a larger highway or expressway. These routes are designed to provide easier access to businesses, shops, and local services, while also allowing drivers to avoid the faster-paced traffic on major highways. Business routes are commonly marked with signs to guide drivers toward areas with higher foot traffic or commercial activity, helping both locals and visitors navigate through the area.
Examples
The business route was clearly marked, guiding travelers through the historic downtown area.
