I should have thought of that as a factor.
This is good to show those who maintain that rail transit does not work.
I'm glad the bike-on-board program is still in the works. This is the kind of innovative thinking that will increase ridership over time. You can actually take a bike onto any Amtrak train now, but you have to disassemble it and check it as luggage. Being able to bring your bike in one piece will encourage more people to combine these modes.
Durham's present and future station are close to the American Tobacco Trail and greenways. Also, the downtown streets are being redeveloped in a manner that is more bike-friendly. Does anyone know how easy it is to ride a bike around the Raleigh, Charlotte or Greensboro stations? There could be great connections, but I don't know.
