Whats the difference between the “triad” and the “triangle”?
The Piedmont Triad is the area centered around the cities of Greensboro, Winston-Salem, and High Point. The Research Triangle is the area anchored by the cities of Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill. • Explain the Inner and Outer Beltline. I-440 is also known as the Raleigh Beltline. The Inner Beltline runs clockwise around Raleigh, while the Outer Beltline runs counter-clockwise. If someone wanted to drive the shortest route from NC State to North Raleigh, he/she would take the Inner Beltline and head North and East. If someone wanted to get from NC State onto I-40 heading East, he/she would take the Outer Beltline heading South. For more information on Interstate 440, see the relevant Wikipedia article.
