Change on 51st Ave
The Nations Road Diet
Jul. 12, 2017
Mayor Megan Barry: Yesterday (July 11, 2017) we officially opened the 51st Avenue complete street in The Nations. This is a fast-changing neighborhood, and we knew we needed to make the street work better for drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians alike without adding time to their commutes. The two-way turning lane, on-street parking, slower speed limits, and obviously dedicated bike lanes will help Nashvillians move around efficiently and safely.
NEIGHBORHOOD SUPPORTS TRAFFIC CALMING
July 2017
At the July Nations Neighborhood Meeting, a road diet was announced by councilwoman Mary Carolyn Roberts. It shows a plan similar to one TURBO tackled back in 2014. We are happy to have helped facilitate a conversation that has brought great progress.
