While there has been talk for several years about a metro rail service in the Triad among transportation groups, a study is officially underway for a light-rail in the Piedmont Triad metro of North Carolina. These are all the major destinations that would be on the light-rail line.

- NC A&T State University
- Downtown Greensboro
- UNC-Greensboro
- Greensboro Coliseum
- Piedmont Triad International Airport
- Downtown Kernersville
- Winston-Salem State University
- Piedmont Triad Research Park
- Downtown Winston-Salem
- Baptist Medical Center
- Forsyth Medical Center
- Hanes Mall

The Triad already has a regional bus system in place.
