As MTA/RTA continue their outreach asking community members to weigh in on three future transit scenarios, our Moving Forward initiative invites you to three upcoming conversations on important aspects of Middle Tennessee’s transit future!
Shared-Use Mobility and Nashville’s Transportation Future
Tuesday, April 5
3-4:45 p.m.
Downtown Nashville Public Library
615 Church Street
Register here.
Moving Forward and the TransitCenter will host this conversation on shared-use mobility – transportation services that are shared among users, including taxis, transit, bike sharing, car sharing, carpooling and more. How will these new modes affect fixed-route transit systems? How can cities ensure that public transit investments connect to shared-use mobility options to create mobility for all users?
Hear from Sharon Feigon, executive director of the Shared Use Mobility Center; Erin Hafkenschiel, director of transportation and sustainability in Mayor Megan Barry’s Office; and a representative from Lyft in a panel discussion of how to make the most of shared-use mobility.
