Coachway interchanges help to achieve low overall journey times by avoiding operation through congested urban centres.

[3][4] Alan Storkey, a transport economist, proposed a motorway based coach system based on Coachway interchanges to the House of Commons Transport Select Committee in May 2006[5] and was promoted by George Monbiot in 2006.

[7] In January 2010, the South East England regional transport board criticised the plans published by the development authority for the 2012 Summer Olympics for not providing plans of a credible long term coach network saying 'The ODA has been working on an extensive network of coach services... [but] the lack of reference to this work [in the plan] is both intriguing and at the same time concerning.

The Reading Coachway on the M4 motorway is more like a bus stop in a supermarket car park.
