The West Corridor is one of the Charlotte Area Transit System's (CATS) five rapid transit corridors.  The proposed West Corridor project is a 6.4 mile alignment that will operate Streetcar from Trade St to Cedar St to West Morehead St, then along Wilkinson Blvd to Harlee Ave, terminating at the airport employee parking lot on Harlee Ave. 

The Streetcar will travel in mixed traffic in the curb lanes.  Ten stops have been identified.  No park and ride lots have been included.  The Streetcar will operate at 10-minute headways in the peak period, and 15-minute headways in the off-peak times and weekends.  Nine Streetcar vehicles will be required to operate this service.  This alternative assumes that the West Corridor Streetcar line would use the Center City Streetcar vehicle maintenance facility
