Here in the Research Triangle are of North Carolina we have the

used to bring product to their warehouses in Durham.
It's part of a larger network that will someday be the East Coast
Greenway; a bike & pedestrian path that will go from the Canadian
border at Calais, Maine all the way down to Key West?
