Raleigh Union Station, located at 510 W. Martin St. in downtown Raleigh, was built to replace the previous Amtrak station on Cabarrus Street due to overcrowding and lack of capacity for expected ridership growth. This modern transportation hub accommodates intercity passenger rail, commuter rail, buses, taxis, bicycles, and freight traffic, enhancing efficiency and safety along the railroad corridor between Raleigh and Charlotte.
Aligned with plans and funding from the N.C. Department of Transportation and the City of Raleigh, Raleigh Union Station serves as a vital multimodal center, offering four daily round-trip passenger trains and contributing to the overall development and accessibility of downtown Raleigh. The station's strategic location and improved facilities cater to diverse transportation needs, making it a key component of the city's transportation infrastructure.
