Charlotte, NC Observer, 10/16/18:

 

 

Light rail in uptown, South End could be down for more than another week. Here’s why.


 

 

 

The Charlotte Area Transit System is trying to speed up a $1.2 million repair that's put the central segment of the Lynx Blue Line light rail out of commission, but it still might be more than a week until full service is restored.
