Ease morning commute with bus service

by Erik Mash, operations director

Nashville is booming, and so is the traffic. How about using the USN morning bus service to improve your morning commute? Mr. Durnan would love to see brimming buses pull up on Edgehill every morning. The first week is free, and the entire year is $300. To sign up for bus service, click here. Read on for pick up routes and times.
We will have seven different morning bus pick-up points this year along four routes, as we did last year.  In order to streamline the billing processthe bus service will have an annual fee of $300 per family.  If you want to discontinue riding, billing will stop at the first of the month. The $300 represents a cost reduction in the service.
