The Let's Move Nashville plan would spend $9 billion (including $5.4 billion for capital costs) to build a new transit network in the quickly growing city of Nashville. Voters will decide if the plan is worth the cost.
David Plazas pens an editorial for the Tennessean expressing support for the Let's Move Nashville plan.
After weighing multiple arguments, sponsoring a debate, reading the 55-page plan, holding eight meetings with diverse stakeholders and attending multiple forums, The Tennessean Editorial Board recommends that Metro Nashville voters approve the plan.
This presents a bold vision that looks generations ahead and will solidify Nashville’s place as a leader, trend-setter and destination.
For those keeping track at home, the Let's Move Nashville proposal builds on previous planning efforts of the nMotion Transit Plan and the NashvilleNext general plan. Nashville voters will weigh-in on the Let's Move Nashville plan on May 1, 2018.
