Nashville's Choose How You Move Marks Two Years With New Project Tracker
The voter-approved transportation program launched an online dashboard to track over $100 million in sidewalk, signal, and transit upgrades, as Mayor Freddie O'Connell touted double-digit ridership growth and 70 sidewalk projects.
NASHVILLE â Two years after voters approved the Choose How You Move transportation program, Metro has launched a new online tool that lets residents track exactly where the more than $100 million investment is going.
The website, accessible through the city's government portal, provides monthly updates on sidewalks under construction or completed, intersections receiving new traffic signals, transit service improvements, and neighborhood-level impacts. An interactive map allows residents to filter projects by location and type to see what is planned near their homes.
Mayor Freddie O'Connell said the program has already expanded transit service and produced double-digit ridership growth. He pointed to 70 sidewalk projects either completed or in the pipeline, including new walkways near Geodis Park to help fans reach the stadium safely.
The initiative has also established a new transit security division in partnership with the Metro Nashville Police Department and is in the process of upgrading 200 intersections, including work along Murfreesboro Pike and Lebanon Pike.
"In those two years, we have been able to turn around and invest hundreds of millions of dollars in sidewalks, signals, service and safety," O'Connell said. "We did want to have a centralized resource so you can visit Nashville dot gov slash choose how you move and get all of the up to date information there every single month."
The launch comes as Nashville continues to grapple with rapid growth and persistent calls for safer streets and more reliable transit options. The program, funded through a voter-approved referendum, represents one of the city's most significant investments in multimodal infrastructure in decades.
