Yeah, looking at the current transit ridership in the Nashville area (APTA says <35K unlinked trips per day and declining), I see absolutely no reason why Nashville should even remotely entertain a $5B LRT project. It would far better off spending a fraction of that money on improving bus services and adding BRT to try to create transit corridors that might be worthy of getting rail in 30 years.
