Choose How You Move

Your Half-Cent at Work

Choose How You Move is Nashville’s voter-approved transportation improvement program, funded by a dedicated ½-cent sales surcharge. For the first time in the city’s history, this provides a stable, long-term source of funding to deliver transportation improvements at scale—focused on what matters most: sidewalks, signals, service, and safety.

Choose How You Move is making practical, cost-effective investments that improve daily mobility, connect people to jobs, schools, and essential services, and make streets safer across Nashville and Davidson County.
