The route of transmission the scenario describes is Indirect contact.
What is Indirect Contact?
When there is no direct human-to-human contact, indirect contact transmission occurs. Contact occurs when a reservoir comes into contact with contaminated surfaces or objects, or with vectors like mosquitoes, flies, mites, fleas, ticks, rodents, or dogs.
Food, water, biologic products (blood), and fomites are examples of vehicles that may indirectly transmit an infectious agent (inanimate objects such as handkerchiefs, bedding, or surgical scalpels). A vehicle can passively transport a pathogen, just as food or water can.
Indirect person-to-person transmission occurs when the original host sheds pathogens into the environment, which then infects someone else.
Infections spread through indirect contact when an infected person sneezes or coughs.
