Please see the link for the TN Statewide Transportation Map for all citizens including aging and disabled residents. Just click on the county you are interested in and see the transportation options available.
Another link is available for TN Transportation Programs and Services to offer an alternative to the interactive Statewide Transportation Map of older adult transportation resources.
These resources are provided by the TN Commission on Aging and Disability (TCAD). These sites provide public transportation information for each county in Tennessee. For instance, in Davidson County, the programs offered include:
Senior Ride Nashville - An assisted ride service that pairs a senior who needs a ride with a volunteer who can give one.
MTA Access Ride - The Nashville Metropolitan Transit Authority's (MTA) Access program is a publicly funded paratransit service, which operates specialized van services for persons with disabilities who are unable to use regular fixed-route buses. Access provides door-to-door paratransit service within Davidson County, excluding commuter or express service.
Jefferson Street United Merchants Partnership (JUMP) - A non-profit organization whose mission is “To develop, foster and promote cooperative economic development through revitalization, acquisition, education and public safety programs in North Nashville.”
