Arabic term or phrase: تحرير 27 محضرا
I'm having some trouble with this sentence and want to make sure I understand the meaning of محاضر. The country is Tunisia, and the full context can be viewed here:

كما تم تحرير 27 محضرا موزعة بين محاضر مرورية ووقوف محجر ومحاضر اقتصادية وصحية.

I am also having trouble understanding the meaning of وقوف محجر as it fits into this sentence. I have posted an inquiry about the term previously but do not feel that I have understood the right meaning. Please add your insights here, if able:
