The Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS) is managed by the Public Transit Department. The Department maintains a dual focus, managing and continually improving day-to-day operations of the City’s transit services while moving swiftly ahead with planning for a regional transit system which will include bus rapid transit, light rail, commuter rail, and expanded bus service within a six-county area. An integral element of this effort is proactive participation in virtually every facet of land use and development planning in Mecklenburg County. It is CATS’ philosophy that the transit system should and can share the responsibility for improving the quality of life throughout the Charlotte region by helping to create a community in which public transportation, and its impact on social and economic development, benefits both riders and non-riders.

Cherokee North Carolina

When you visit Cherokee, North Carolina, you can almost imagine yourself living this way. Here, the same mountains where the Cherokees have maintained their traditions for generations surround you. People who proudly preserve a culture far older than the new nation that surrounds them, welcome you.

The Cherokees believe that they have always lived in Western North Carolina. Indeed, finely crafted stone tools and fluted spear-points confirm that ancient people lived here more than 11,000 years ago, at the end of the last Ice Age. Ancient Cherokee tales describe hunts of the mastodons that once foraged through the upland spruce and fir.
