Description
How will Nashville's largest transportation investment program impact Donelson and Hermitage businesses?
Join the Donelson Hermitage Chamber of Commerce for our June Economic & Community Development Meeting at the Hermitage Precinct, where local business leaders, community stakeholders, and residents will gain valuable insight into the future of transportation, connectivity, and economic growth in our area.
This month, we welcome Sabrina Sussman, Chief Program Officer for Mayor Freddie O'Connell's historic Choose How You Move (CHYM) transportation investment program. As the leader overseeing implementation of the $3.1 billion initiative, Sabrina brings a unique, behind-the-scenes perspective on how funding is being allocated, where projects stand today, and what businesses can expect in the months and years ahead. With experience spanning federal, state, and local transportation policy, including leadership roles with the U.S. Department of Transportation under Secretary Pete Buttigieg and Deputy Secretary Polly Trottenberg, Sabrina offers an informed perspective on one of the most significant public investments in Nashville's history.
Attendees will learn how CHYM investments may affect:
- Local businesses and commercial corridors
- Customer and employee accessibility
- Traffic flow and connectivity
- Future infrastructure improvements throughout Donelson and Hermitage
Whether you're a business owner, employer, developer, community advocate, or simply interested in the future of our neighborhoods, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.
Come ready to learn, ask questions, and connect with fellow business and community leaders as we explore the projects shaping the future of Donelson, Hermitage, and greater Nashville.
The Donelson Hermitage Chamber of Commerce is proud to provide opportunities like these that bring together information, collaboration, and community-focused leadership to help our members stay informed and engaged.
