Les gares routières de voyageurs ont été créées du fait de la nécessité de réunir en un même point de départ et d'arrivée les lignes régulières d'autocars, et d'assurer ainsi entre elles la coordination indispensable pour satisfaire pleinement le client.

Terminus [...] désigne un point d'arrêt extrême d'une ligne d'aviation, de chemin de fer, de transport maritime ou fluvial, de transport routier (autocars) ou de transport urbain (autobus ou métro). «Terminus» n'a ni le sens de «gare» ni celui de «station», sauf dans le cas des stations extrêmes. [...] une «station» [...] est un point d'arrêt d'une ligne de transport terrestre où se trouve un ensemble d'installations pour l'embarquement et le débarquement des voyageurs et des marchandises. Les «stations» extrêmes sont les «stations terminus». [...] une «gare» [...] est le bâtiment ou l'ensemble des bâtiments qui font partie des installations d'une station [...] : toute station a sa gare. [...] Dans le langage courant, «gare» se dit comme synonyme de «station» pour les transports interurbains : [...] le parc de stationnement de la gare des autocars. [...] Au Canada, dans le transport routier surtout, on confond les sens de gare, station et terminus. On ne peut appeler «terminus» une «gare» (ou une «station») d'une ligne d'autocars où les véhicules ne s'arrêtent que pour les besoins locaux, même si cette gare sert de terminus à une ligne secondaire d'autocars. Il ne faut pas dire, par exemple, le «terminus» des autocars à Granby au lieu de la gare ou la station des autocars à Granby. 8, record 6, French, - gare%20routi%C3%A8re%20de%20voyageurs

Les gares routières de marchandises ont pour objectif d'éviter que les gros véhicules de transport routier ne pénètrent à l'intérieur des agglomérations urbaines importantes, où ils sont une gêne certaine à la circulation. Elles se situent donc à la périphérie des villes, à des endroits d'accès facile, et elles mettent à la disposition des transporteurs des quais et appareils de manutention, des hangars et entrepôts, de façon à faciliter le chargement et le déchargement des marchandises transportées, qui doivent être livrées en ville par des véhicules de petit tonnage. 2, record 14, French, - gare%20routi%C3%A8re%20de%20marchandises

Une aire de trafic de fret distincte, adjacente à l'aérogare de fret, est parfois prévue pour des avions qui ne transportent que du fret et de la poste. La séparation des avions cargo et des avions de passagers est souhaitable, car chaque type d'avion exige des types d'installations différents sur l'aire de trafic et à l'aérogare. 1, record 15, French, - aire%20de%20trafic%20de%20fret
