Transportation and Telecommunications

Four interstate highways and other multi-lane
state roads touch on the Blackstone Valley. Four major airports
are within an hour drive, with one only minutes away. An active
rail system and on site rail links in many locations support
large freight needs, and the region's largest intermodal transportation
terminal is only 20 minutes away. The area's state-of-the-art
telecommuniations system supports data, voice and video needs,
including high speed digital transmission. Commuter rail connections
with Boston and Worcester are accesible within the Valley
as part of an expanding passenger train system. Whether your
goal is drawing retain traffic into the Valley or shipping
finished goods out of it, the Blackstone Valley's infrastructure
meets your needs of today and tomorrow.
