Belongs here: named ancient and historic roads, modern highway systems and long-distance overland trade routes considered as a physical corridor. Does not belong here: named services that operate along a route, tracked as route-service entities, or maritime trade routes, grouped separately under a future maritime corridor bucket once the atlas mints enough of them.
