Residents and tourists utilizing the free Music City Circuit will soon have more frequent and longer hours of service beginning Sept. 29 as part of the Nashville MTA’s biannual system improvements to its transportation network.
Circuit buses traveling on the Blue and Green Circuits will operate every seven to eight minutes between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. and every 15 minutes after 6 p.m. along 5th Avenue to and from Demonbreun Street and the Bicentennial Mall area.
Service hours for the Blue Circuit will be extended to 11 p.m. Monday through Saturday to match the current schedule for the Green Circuit. Also, the Blue Circuit will operate in both directions on 5th Avenue and has been extended to Sulphur Dell and First Tennessee Park, the new baseball stadium currently under construction, and will continue to serve Riverfront Station.
The Green Circuit has been rerouted to provide service along 5th Avenue to and from Bicentennial Mall area and Sulphur Dell/First Tennessee Park and will no longer serve Riverfront Station directly.
Effective Sept. 28, several other MTA bus schedules will change. The new schedules have been placed on the MTA website and are being distributed this week to various display locations around town, including Music City Central.
To assist customers with the service adjustments, a summary of changes brochure is available on the MTA website, on the buses, at the Music City Central transit station and other locations in the downtown area where MTA transit materials are displayed.
