Project story
Connect Downtown balanced the needs of residents, workers, businesses, tourism, freight, transit, micromobility, special events, and public agencies. Fairpointe evaluated policy and development conditions and helped establish a unified vision for a multimodal and equitable downtown transportation network.
The team built surveys and interactive maps, developed social media campaigns, facilitated meetings and workshops, and engaged stakeholders ranging from small businesses to major institutions. Fairpointe synthesized the findings in a comprehensive engagement report that directly informed the final action plan.
A community-informed action plan that NDOT is using to guide mobility improvements in Nashville's downtown core.
