Link Transit’s (Burlington, NC) Blue Route and its complementary paratransit service will now help even more Alamance County residents get to work, medical care, shopping destinations, and educational opportunities. A video of a Link Transit bus in Elon, NC, is available for download at: https://we.tl/t-j02b6bri65.
