overflyer corridors

Hey all, I have heard that many international airports, particularly in the US, have been using corridors at about 3500 as a way to allow light ACFT to overfly large airports safely and easily. Does anyone know of any places where this occurs, seems much better than trying to get that B206 across the main RWY at 1000ft

LAX is probably the most well known. 3500ft one way, 4500ft the other. Dedicated conspicuity squawk and blind calls entering and leaving the corridor on its own frequency.

Though not technically an overflying corridor, Manchester + Liverpool have a low level VFR route from north to south. Users are advised to squawk 7366 and maintain a listening watch with Manchester Radar. It goes from ground to 1250ft on the Manchester QNH.
