WeGo Public Transit modifies existing routes, schedules, and bus stops in order to improve overall service twice a year. We make these changes based on ridership trends, service reliability, and route productivity. Changes are generally implemented in the winter (early January) and the summer (early July).
The process takes six months and includes:
- Proposal development
- Community meetings
- Board approval
- Schedule development
- Infrastructure
- Customer information
- Implementation
Summer 2026 Changes
WeGo Public Transit will be implementing Summer 2026 Service Changes on July 5. The proposal was approved by the Nashville MTA Board on April 23. Service changes are funded by Choose How You Move, Nashville's voter-approved transportation improvement program.
