Dutch term or phrase: opgang met een wasstraat
This is a document from the Dutch Ministry to try and set up a new information management structure for prisoners and anything to do with that.

In the software list there is an entry about internet access which is managed by Jubit:

'Inkomend via Jubit, een opgang met een wasstraat'.

The client has no context and the internet is not very helpful with wasstraat (only carwahses, but I don't suppose they call it that in English).

Target is UK English.

Any ideas?
