Lay-By in Moving Goods

A Lay-by is a designated area, often alongside a road or a transport route, where vehicles, especially trucks and other commercial vehicles, can temporarily stop or park. Lay-bys are essential for long-haul truck drivers and other transport professionals. They offer a safe place to take rest breaks, which are not only necessary for driver well-being but also mandated by regulations to prevent fatigue-related accidents. 

Lay-bys can serve as temporary loading and unloading zones, especially for goods and materials that need to be transferred from one vehicle to another. This helps maintain the flow of traffic and ensures prompt assistance when needed.
