A Quicker Way to Get a NC Quickpass sticker

As we have mentioned in multiple RTA posts, NC QuickPass is a great tool to save money on tolls on turnpikes in North Carolina. Harris Teeter and other retail locations have partnered with the NC Turnpike Authority to offer transponder stickers at all area store locations at a very low cost. Read more in this week’s blog.

 

RTA Brunch, and I-40 / RDU Exchange Station, are Above the Fold

While more than 300 attendees enjoyed the RTA brunch earlier this month as a tremendous celebration of business leadership, regional partnership, and advancing mobility, the reach and momentum from the event are continuing nicely.

Subsequent to the brunch, both ABC-11 and front page coverage in the Raleigh News & Observer provided excellent media coverage of the event, including BRT in Raleigh, the findings of the FAST transit study, and the release of a simulation video and renderings (example) of a potential I-40/RDU Airport Exchange Station over I-40. RTA is committed to advancing our regional BRT transit network, and to accelerating the proposed I-40/RDU Airport Exchange Station, as soon as possible. Click on last week’s blog for more information.
