hard shoulder
A hard shoulder is a strip of land or a lane on the side of a road or motorway, often covered with a different surface than the main roadway. It provides a safe place where drivers can stop in emergencies, away from the flow of traffic. It is also often used by emergency services to bypass traffic and reach the scene of an accident more quickly.
