Service Changes

bus

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

Winter 2027 Changes

The Nashville MTA Board voted October 22, 2026, to approve WeGo Public Transit Winter 2027 Service Changes, including a new connector route in Antioch and frequency improvements. The changes will go into effect on January 3, 2027. Service changes are funded by Mayor Freddie O’Connell’s voter approved Choose How You Move transportation improvement program.
