Northeast Corridor Mobility Study continues with November public meetings

Citizens in Sumner County are invited to attend upcoming workshops hosted by the Nashville Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) regarding the Northeast Corridor Mobility Study. The study is a regional planning effort to analyze future development scenarios and transportation improvements between Downtown Nashville and Sumner County. The study considers existing land use/urban design policies and economic growth potential en route to evaluating possible transportation solutions for the fast growing northeast corridor.

The study is at a critical stage where specific transit alternatives are being evaluated to help meet the needs and vision of the corridor. Input from the workshops will lead to reach the study’s ultimate goal of providing critical information to help local communities involved to agree on a preferred alternative that best meets the region’s vision and the mechanisms to achieve that vision. The following workshops will be held in or near Sumner County:
