BL2026-1581

Bill

This ordinance creates a dedicated funding stream for quick-build transportation safety improvements — such as crosswalks, bicycle lanes, traffic calming measures, and signage — by setting aside 1% of motor vehicle license revenues and 1% of a five-year average of general obligation bond proceeds, capped at $1.5 million per year. The Nashville Department of Transportation and Multimodal Infrastructure would develop guidelines, select projects responding to roadway fatalities and injuries, and seek input from the Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Commission and the Vision Zero Advisory Committee before moving forward.
