I have lived in Nashville for 20 years and am beyond excited for Music City Loop. I’m shocked that certain Metro Council Members are attacking a private company who wants to invest in Nashville, and opposing a project which is: - 10 minutes from downtown to airport - All electric - Hundreds of jobs and hundreds of millions of dollars of investment. Not just the tunnels - they are building 30+ stations - Safest public transportation system in the country - Is FREE - no taxpayer dollars Metro Council - you should be thanking @boringcompany for wanting to come to Nashville, not attacking them. @Angienashville @AllenBurkley @Oliviahill247 @Joyforjustice @Toombsfortwo @Jgamble4council @Cortese_4 @Seanforfive @Claycapp @HarrellforD8 @Votejfw @Jeff_eslick @Erinfor12 @Bradford4D13 @JordanHuffman @Ginnywelsch @Terryvofornash @Cashforcouncil @Jacobkupin4D19 @Hortonrollin @VoteBTaylor @Druffel_thom @Brenda4nash @JLPreptit @Votejohnston @Votebenton @Johnlrutherford @Stylesfor32 @JasonSpainTN

Great discussion (almost 2 hours!) with @AlexDenisTV @charlesrbone @Hermitage1910 about Music City Loop. There are current technical issues with the replay - if it is not recovered, we will do another X Space in the next 2-3 weeks. @Live

After a long day on the roads, TDOT crews are ensuring our equipment is ready to go. This is video from inside one of our Nashville garages earlier today. Statewide, we have 850 trucks available to tackle the winter weather and 980 drivers at the ready. Remember to check smartway.tn.gov for the latest information.
