Major Intermodal Terminals
Intermodal Terminals represent a location where the transfer of goods from one mode
to another occurs. These locations are sometimes referred to as inland ports or inland
terminals due to the high volume of freight transfers. There are two major train-truck
transfer stations in the state:
Charlotte Inland Terminal (CIT) and
Piedmont Triad Inland Terminal (PTIT)
located in Greensboro. These terminals are expected to experience substantial increases
in cargo transfers over the next few years resulting from increased traffic at the State's
seaports. Currently, the majority of air-truck transfers occur at the six major airports
in the State. In the future however, the potential exists for this type of transfer to
occur additionally at the
Global TransPark
in Kinston.
