NASHVILLE – WeGo Public Transit has moved the location and time of an upcoming Journey Pass enrollment event. The January 28 registration will now be held from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the East Park Community Center, 700 Woodland St. Journey Pass is funded through Choose How You Move and is Nashville’s first ever income-based fare-free transit program. Journey Pass gives eligible Davidson County residents free access to rides on WeGo Public Transit and makes travel easier and more accessible for people living on limited income.
With 45 registration events thus far, WeGo has enrolled 7,200 Davidson County residents with three years of free transit access, providing more than 330,000 free rides. The 7,200 passes equate to $16.9 million in transportation aid over the three-year life of the passes.
All enrollees must present a valid photo ID indicating Davidson County residency. Separate events are scheduled by the Office of Homeless Services that will provide additional support for those enrollees. Homeless service providers should contact OHS for the schedule.
SNAP enrollees must provide one of the following as proof of eligibility from the Tennessee Department of Human Services (DHS):
- An eligibility notice of decision (with certification or eligibility date; renewal date must not be expired)
- A verification/ certification letter from DHS (with certification or eligibility date; renewal date must not be expired)
- Access to the One DHS SNAP Benefits portal on your smartphone
