What is the difference between a parking lot and a parking area?
1 Answers
Parking areas and parking lots differ in terms of whether long-term parking is allowed and their functionalities. Below are the specific differences between parking areas and parking lots: 1. Whether long-term parking is allowed: Parking lots are service areas built outside of highways where vehicles can park and rest for extended periods without affecting driving safety; parking areas are temporary stopping points, such as temporary passenger pick-up points or emergency stops for malfunctioning vehicles, where long-term parking is not permitted. 2. Functionality: Parking lots offer more comprehensive services. Generally, parking areas only provide refueling services without other amenities.
