Nashville Connector

Cincinnati Metro is officially Nashville’s peer city for the 4th Annual Transportation Demand Management Summit!

We’re excited to welcome leaders from Cincinnati in Nashville to dive into two big conversations:
🎬 From Approval to Action: how transportation agencies turn voter-backed plans into real, lasting improvements.
🎟️ From Transit Access to Transit Use: how partnerships, clear communication, and smart connections help grow ridership.

With insight from executives, marketing leaders, local partners, and community voices, attendees will gain practical ideas to strengthen transit service and better connect people to the places they need to go.

Looking forward to learning together and shaping the future of mobility! ✨

Earlier this month, we had the opportunity to present at Council Member Vo's District 17 Town Hall meeting about transportation planning for Nashville’s newest music venue, The Truth.

We’re excited to partner with neighborhood residents, local businesses, the venue team, and the developer to create safe, convenient, and sustainable ways for guests to get to and from the venue. From walking and biking to transit and shared mobility, we’re working to ensure The Truth becomes a multimodal success for the community.

We've got more collaboration ahead and we can’t wait to keep the momentum going!
