English translation:driveway

Explanation:
Olá Lattuca-

Se falando da mesma área aonde os hóspedes estarão embarcando e desembarcando (numa pergunta anterior), eu usaria 'driveway'. Mas se falando de uma outra área, usaria alguma coisa no sentido de 'extra lane will be added to allow for the passage of two vehicles'. Pode ser um ppouco melhorada, mas espero que te ajude.

Abraços...

Ana
