| | | (special) service area for commercial vehicles | Explanation:
I don't even know if there's one official term for this in EN as in FR — though Robin's not wrong with the idea of 'truck stop', albeit sounding rather colloquial to my ears.
The one near where I live is geared up for lorry-drivers, so has a specially-designed lorry park, restaurant with facilities / menu etc. suitable for lorry-drivers, showers etc., high-canopied fuel station, etc. etc. — and I think they are even officially allowed to sleep the night on the car park; I'm not sure they don't even sometimes have basic hotel accommodation too, for those that want it. |
