Knowledge Corridor
Extracted from the Wikipedia article Hartford–Springfield.
The area is also sometimes called the Knowledge Corridor, initially employed as a 2012 rename ("New England's Knowledge Corridor") for the Hartford–Springfield Economic Partnership, an interstate cooperative venture to foster an economic, cultural, and civic partnership between the two major cities on the Connecticut River. The term Knowledge Corridor has gained a degree of currency, mostly with some government organizations as well as local businesses and universities using the name. The New Haven–Springfield Line and Connecticut River Line form the primary rail route through the region, and are sometimes themselves called the Knowledge Corridor in planning documents.
