2/5/26 Boyd Drive Traffic Calming Meeting

This was a virtual community meeting held by the Metro Nashville Network on February 5, 2026, focused on the Boyd Drive Traffic Calming Project. The Nashville Department of Transportation presented a proposed design featuring speed cushions, radar feedback signs, road narrowing, and bulb outs aimed at reducing vehicle speeds and improving pedestrian safety on Boyd Drive between Buena View Boulevard and Kings Lane. The project is part of a broader neighborhood street traffic calming program prioritizing streets based on safety and walkability criteria. The meeting included a discussion of the design details, community feedback, and the upcoming balloting process, where property owners along Boyd Drive will vote on whether to approve the project. A two-thirds majority of returned ballots in favor is required for the project to proceed. No specific contract awards or vendor selections were discussed, but the meeting outlined the next steps in the procurement and implementation process for the traffic calming measures.
