Sidewalks and Buses

 

There is a Metro Council Meeting tonight at 6:30 pm. An agenda has been provided and you can watch the meeting live via channel 3 or stream live on your electronic devices. Also, please do not respond to this email... You can reach me at [email protected].

The mayor is unveiling updated conceptual maps. These maps are an extension of the initial concepts presented at the Technical Advisory Committee meeting on March 6. 

The "Choose How You Move – An All-Access Pass to Sidewalks, Signals, Service, and Safety" initiative focuses on four core areas:

Sidewalks: The concept maps propose constructing up to 86 additional miles of sidewalks, connecting bustling neighborhoods to major corridors and providing safer pedestrian and cyclist routes.

Signals: Improvement plans encompass approximately 600 traffic signals, particularly along major corridors, utilizing technology to enhance traffic flow efficiency and coordination based on demand.

Service: The maps outline 38 miles of BRT lanes, shaped by public input, which aim to expedite travel along busy corridors such as Dickerson Road, Gallatin Road, Murfreesboro Road, and Nolensville Road.

The mayor has mentioned that they will be hosting engagement events to hear from neighbors. You can review his entire map plan here. Please continue to share your thoughts on the plan. As we move closer toward budget season, I will be interested in your voice and your thoughts on the transit planning from the mayor.
