CHARLOTTE, N.C. — New additions to the Carolina Thread Trail  are on the way thanks to a series of new grants to expand its network of Charlotte-area walkways. In all, $755,500 was awarded to seven partners to expand existing trails and blueways and to build new ones. The grants were awarded by Carolina Thread Trail to the cities of Concord, Conover, Shelby and Lowell, as well as the town of McAdenville, the Cleveland County Water Commission and Gaston County Parks and Recreation. The Thread Trail already spans 350 miles of trails and greenways and over 170 miles of blueways, also known as water trails.
