Nashville's Choose How You Move Program Launches New Progress Website

Nashville Celebrates Two Years of Transportation Investment

Since that 2024 vote, the city has been putting that decision into action, marking the two-year anniversary of the Choose How You Move program with a new website and a look back at the progress made.

The progress is built on voter approval. The program has dedicated $220 million toward transportation capital improvements since the collection of the half-cent revenue surcharge began on February 1, 2025.

The human impact of these investments is becoming clearer each day. The progress, he said, “belongs to all of us.”

From Sidewalks to Smart Signals, the Work is Underway

The scale of the program is vast. CHYM has made progress on 78 new sidewalk projects across high-need corridors, including the newly completed Benton Avenue sidewalk at GEODIS Park. It has also launched Journey Pass, a first-of-its-kind free transit program for qualifying Nashvillians, which has seen over 15,000 registrants and more than 3.4 million WeGo trips since launching in 2025.

The city is also progressing on 214 signal upgrades to real-time smart signals across the city.

Planning for the future is also a key component. Project development has also been launched on Nolensville and Gallatin Pikes, two of the city’s busiest transit corridors.

A New Tool for Transparency

To help residents track the program’s progress, Choose How You Move has launched a new website at nashville.gov/choosehowyoumove.

The website offers an interactive project map, an investment breakdown by council district, program updates, and information on how to access Journey Pass.

The Generational Vision

CHYM is more than just a collection of individual projects. The program’s goals include installing smart signals at nearly 600 intersections, developing 54 miles of high-capacity transit with 24/7/365 service, and adding 86 miles of new sidewalks. It also includes safety improvements across 78 miles of the Vision Zero High-Injury Network.

Whether you walk, roll, ride, bike, or drive, the program’s aim is to build a Nashville that is safer and easier to get around. The commitment is clear: the investments are not just on paper or in planning stages; they are being built into the fabric of the city, one project at a time. The work is far from over, but the foundation is laid, and the momentum is building.
