Marketing - Internet, e-Commerce / website for automotive supplier
French term or phrase: page carrefour
I'm translating a document that consists mainly of the text from one page of an automotive supplier's website. At the end of the document (but not on the webpage itself), the following appears in italics: "Reprendre les pages niv 2 idem page carrefour :"

This is followed by an italicised list of categories (e.g. équipement atelier, après-vente, outillage), each of which appears on the actual webpage as a clickable link to another page on the same site.

I've seen indications that "page carrefour" may mean a "redirect page", but I'm wondering whether it should be translated as "linked page" here?

Explanation:
Main Navigation pages create a menu of navigation links on your site that visitors will use to explore your content. Some templates have additional navigation sections, like Secondary or Footer Navigation.

primary (navigation) menu (page)


Explanation:
A navigation menu page can have both a secondary header menu bar and a primary menu bar that displays the menu items.
Here, it seems to be about the primary menu showing the menu items that link to the sub-menu items or sub-pages

Here are some examples of this:

https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices/examples/menubar/me...

There does not seem to be much consensus as to what this is called in English but I think everyone can understand "primary (navigation) menu". I've put "navigation" in brackets as it's already implied so it may be unnecessary. Likewise "page" is probably unnecessary though you may want to keep it to match the French and also because there is usually a secondary header bar on the navigation menu page.

I have also seen this called a "content" or "section/category index" page. However, "index" can also refer to a home page so is not ideal and "content" may not make the navigational element clear enough.
I would not call it a "hub" page as a "hub" is usually seen as being something central with an introduction rather than a nav bar or navigation menu with options to choose. https://techterms.com/definition/navigation_bar
