Regional Transportation Authority

The Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) is a government-funded agency that provides ridesharing opportunities to residents living in the nine-county area surrounding Nashville, Tennessee. Created in 1988, the RTA exists to promote economic growth and improve air quality in Middle Tennessee. The mission of RTA is to offer the citizens of Middle Tennessee choices and alternatives on how they commute to work each day and to coordinate local regional transportation services. By maximizing federal, state, and local funds with fares, RTA provides and/or manages regional commuter bus service, hundreds of vanpools and carpools, and Tennessee’s first commuter rail service, the RTA Music City Star.
