MTA Board voted to approve the proposal
NASHVILLE – 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.
"We're making transit faster, better, and more reliable with every expansion funded by Choose How You Move," Mayor Freddie O'Connell said. "Hundreds of jobs run through Nashville's airport, and the people behind those important roles deserve reliable transit service. These changes reflect our commitment to improving the airport experience, not just for visitors, but for the Nashvillians who make this city what it is everyday."
