32nd Avenue North Traffic Calming
32nd Avenue North Traffic Calming
Residents in this neighborhood applied for the Traffic Calming Program with a goal of lowering traffic speeds on 32nd Avenue N and making the street safer for people walking, biking, taking, transit, and driving. NDOT is working with nearby residents to choose a traffic calming design and facilitate a voting process to approve or reject the plan. Information on other traffic calming projects in the Hadley Park neighborhood can be found at these links: 33rd Ave N and Albion St.
This project is now in the balloting phase, and the proposed traffic calming plan can be viewed here: 32nd Ave N Traffic Calming Concept
The voting window will close on September 30, 2025.
The Nashville Department of Transportation and Multimodal Infrastructure has chosen 32nd Avenue N from Albion Street to Clifton Avenue for the Traffic Calming Program. For more information on potential traffic calming measures for the street, please see NDOT's Traffic Calming Toolbox

NDOT is working with nearby residents to choose a traffic calming design and facilitate a voting process to approve or reject the plan.
What we've learned
We receive hundreds of applications for traffic calming every year. We chose this street for the Traffic Calming Program because our traffic study showed it scored highly when evaluated in five key categories:
- Vehicular Speed (45%)
- How fast are vehicles traveling along the street?
- Volume (25%)
- How many vehicles are traveling on the street each day?
- Non-Driver Accommodations (15% )
- Are there sidewalks along the segment and/or bikeways and transit service close by?
- Vulnerable User Injury/Fatalities (10%)
- Have there been any pedestrians or bicyclists injured or killed on the street in the past 10 years?
- Trip Destinations (5%)
- Is the street close to common trip destinations like parks, schools, libraries, and community centers?
How you can help
Residents can get involved by reviewing and sharing feedback on the traffic calming design concept. Property owners can vote to approve or reject the traffic calming project if they own property with a property line along the affected street.
