hovercraft traffic
A place or right-of-way designated for hovercraft travel over land, water, or ice.
A hovercraft traffic corridor is a place or right-of-way designated for transportation by hovercrafts, which are amphibious vehicles that travel on a cushion of high-pressure air. Hovercraft corridors can be situated on land, water, or ice.
The route can cross any of the stated surfaces. Travel on water alone is not a condition of hovercraft traffic.
The corridor is designated for vehicles traveling on an air cushion. A place used only to store those vehicles is a different use.
