NC Rail Gets $300M Upgrade | Winston–Salem News

from Winston–Salem News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

North Carolina’s Piedmont rail corridor is set for a $300 million upgrade to make trains safer, faster, and more reliable between Raleigh and Charlotte. New track, highway bridges replacing crossings, and infrastructure improvements in Guilford, Durham, and Wake counties will boost capacity and reduce delays. With passenger ridership hitting a 35-year high at nearly 740,000 last year, this investment responds to growing demand and aims to modernize the state’s rail network—construction expected to begin in 2–3 years.
