Walk Bike Nashville

We envision a Nashville where all people have the freedom, dignity, and choice to move through a comprehensive and safe network of sidewalks, bikeways, and transit routes. We want to thrive even if we don't drive.
Over the past 12 months, we’ve been asking ourselves some big questions about our work: How do we make better streets? What should our priorities be going forward? And how can we invite more members into our movement?
Today, we’re proud to launch our Streets for People Framework.

Happy Thanksgiving from Walk Bike Nashville!
We’ve accomplished so much together this year, and we’re so grateful to our community for helping us make it happen. We hope you have a wonderful long weekend celebrating with loved ones — might we recommend a post-meal walk around your neighborhood?

Street murals are a great tool to make our streets safer and beautiful! We were proud to partner with Civic Design Center, Nashville DOT, Bridgestone, and Antioch Pike neighbors to help paint a bright, highly visible sidewalk extension near Wright Middle School.

To Nashville, With Love is building a better streetscape, one bench at a time. After several benches were removed from public spaces and transit stops this summer, the group of volunteers began installing their own benches throughout the city.

Drivers play an important role in keeping families safe on Halloween!
These tips are helpful year-round, but especially as kids take to the streets in higher numbers tonight.

As the leaves are changing, we want to celebrate the many street-level benefits of the mighty tree! Trees don’t just add color to our lives. They make streets safer, more beautiful places for people to enjoy.

Car-free streets? Bus lanes? Yes please!
We’re excited about the pilot projects bringing people-first street design to Broadway this month.
These are promising solutions on our city’s most visible street, and we hope they lead to long-term improvements and similar efforts around the city!

Before we get into the individual responses, @walkbikenashville.bsky.social has an excellent summary of the survey results: www.walkbikenashville.org/east_bank_bo...
Overall, nearly 80% of respondents did not support the proposed designs (77.5% for River North, 79.4% for the other sections).

Statement from WeGo does not dispute any info about the flaws in this process.
There’s also a more fundamental issue here. When ridership and profitability are at odds for a public transit agency, they should choose ridership. I care about fairness too. So, let’s give more people a good deal.

TL:DR- WeGo is doubling Walk Bike's QuickTicket rate and gave three weeks notice to come up with $20,000 in additional renewal fees. This program should be celebrated and replicated but instead, we're having to pause it. The WeGo Ride program can be great but the current structure is not sustainable
We’re putting a pause on new Walk Bike Bus Passes, as well as renewals, due to an unexpected rate hike from WeGo Transit. Active passes will continue to function through their renewal dates, but we are unable to activate or renew passes.

And we have this blank slate of East Bank to build the road however we want to build it,” said Meredith Montgomery, executive director of Walk Bike Nashville and one of the event attendees. “At a time when we are actively retrofitting roads in our city to make them narrower, safer, better for pedestrians, more multimodal — it seems like the current [East Bank Boulevard] plan that’s out there is just building a new version of what we keep trying to fix.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4hgdjffqxgk3qyzss27rhhl7/bafkreibxeyiy6ccflezy6hwcvw57f37azxqa3c46wawh3so56cwzl3q2ki@jpeg)
