They should, therefore, be easily accessible to the sub - regions and through - traffic which they serve by being located on major arterials near junctions with major highways on or major highways them- selves. Arterial Businesses, such as drive -ins, superettes, service stations, supermarkets, and dry cleaning, require large lots with low building coverage and serve neighborhoods and communities. They should therefore, be placed in central locations or major arterials or adjacent to shopping centers. • Automotive and Allied Sales, such as new and used car sales, farm implement sales, trailer and heavy equipment sales, serve communities and subregions. They should therefore, be concentrated to allow for comparison shopping. Automotive and Allied Services, including automobile services and repair, body shops, service stations, automobile parts, serve neighborhood, communities, and subregions. They should be located adjacent to each other because of their complemen- tary functions, and near shopping centers.
